The - I've been somewhere no one else has - thread

[The Mole]

Potosi, Bolivia.

Yes - did the dynamite poses outside the silver museum.

 

[FamilyGuy]

The Alamo

The room at the top of the building opposite the Old Bailey that pre-dates the Great fire of London

Waikiki Beach

The Beach where they recorded "Bali High" in South Pacific

In a Seaplane, flying over Alcatraz

 

[jimhigham]

Good game. Here goes...

Bata in Equatorial Guinea?

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

Huancavelica, Peru, home to the shinning path.

Hirat, Afghanistan

Mayan ruins, Belize

 

[Smith DID score]

Penistone, England

Been there but a long time ago when they still had a railway running through it - now a cycle path I believe.

How about:-

Hastings in New Zealand

or closer to home

Darley Moor Race Circuit

 

[Sergei's Celebration]

Bamiyan, Afghanistan

[shoreham moonraker]

Mayan ruins, Belize

Which ones? Have been to a few.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Principality of Liechtenstein. I played football there in the 80s and it was like the place out of chitty chitty bang bang

Yep.

I've performed at the National Theatre in Vaduz. They made us pay Liechtenstein income tax before we could leave the country.

Ok but the line from Manchester through Woodhead tunnel to Penistone has been shut since early 80's, most of that is a now a cycle path.

 

[fataddick]

Providence, RI (I'm guessing people have been there though, given an RI bid a few posts up). Went there for WWE Backlash last year - Dunkin' Donuts Center, yeah! Rated best PPV in years, Cena got thrown through a searchlight, the gnarly twat. Hurrah!

Uninteresting fact: My mummy was born and bred in Penistone, yet I have never been there (and - even though I'm weekending in Huddersfield for football - probably never will). I very much admire her brother, Uncle Alun RIP, who moved from Penistone to (the only other place he ever lived) Scunthorpe. I takes a special style of swearword skill to choose to only ever live in those two places x

 

[Trufflehound]

Bet you haven't been to Cashes Green?

Funny you should say that...

I've spent lots of Green Cash - does that count?

 

[Trufflehound]

Yep.

I've performed at the National Theatre in Vaduz. They made us pay Liechtenstein income tax before we could leave the country.

I killed a Liechtensteinian wasp in Vaduz that was trying to eat my cheese sandwich.

I was not required to pay for that pleasure.

 

[Icy Gull]

The Beach where they recorded "Bali High" in South Pacific

Formentera? Been there loads of times. Been past but never set foot on Es Vedra which was Bali Hai

Elba, has Elba been mentioned yet?

 

[8ace]

Albuquerque - NM

Done.

Has anyone been to Truth or Consequences in the same state? (I haven't)

 

[bhaexpress]

Dont choose 'The Philippines' as your specialist subject on Mastermind BHAExpress.

Well don't chose the USA as yours. Fact is I'll be there later this year but won't be staying as my other half hates the place.

 

[withdeanwombat]

Having just returned from PARIS France,I'm too blurry eyed to read 52 pages,but what about

Ushuia
Bariloche
Tierra del Fuego.

 

[xenophon]

Hirat, Afghanistan

Mayan ruins, Belize

Back at ya 1988 - Belize (& some old ruins), last year - Herat

BTW, did you stay in the Silk Road Hotel when you were in Bamiyan?
