Yep, think I've got it now! North Ronaldsay! The airfields a mile apart presumably are Westray and Papa Westray.

When I first looked at the pic, I didn't realise the water was, in fact, erm water! It looked just like flatlands- hence the Yorkshire guess...

Well, that wasted the evening Thanks for that one!

Now, here's a fairly easy one to keep things moving..


No clues 'til the morning, not that you'll need 'em..

G'night all

Lots of viewers but no takers, I really did not think this would cause a problem. Perhaps time for a clue? Those trees in neat rows may well yield Oranges.

Not Spain but it is not far from a shore which has a sea that also laps on the shores of Spain.

We are talking about the Mediterranean coastlines but not French try the other end of the Med.
