    🙂 you are all close!

    A clue. The mountain in the background is pretty well known and the English border is only about 400 metres away!

    Herefords Knob?

    Serious guess – Pen Y Fan, from the sarn Helen trail

    EDIT – too far from border, so….

    Rhos Dorion/Waun Fach From towards Abergavenny way?

    Close boxelder, but no cigar! If I turned 90 degrees to my right I would be looking straight at the end of Lord Herefords Knob!

    PS. Not that it helps but I can see my house from here 😉

    Is there a name for the studying of pics and working out the position from where it was taken?
    So Mr Welshfarmer, I reckon you took that picture from somewhere east of Llanthony in the vale of Ewyas.

    Here? http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=330366&y=227293&z=0&sv=51.939767,+-3.014345&st=7&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf

    Please excuse me for interrupting . . . but I’ve always wondered about this Private Eye cover.
    Any suggestions?

    Looks like Malverns maybe?
    Challenge accepted Esme. I may be some time…

    EDIT; too lumpy for Chilterns, if its Wales then I’m buggered

    Mr Twang, go to the top of the class as you are spot on 🙂

    Over to you

    Not the Malverns or chilterns. Could be Wales. Will work on it. But no bike so doesn’t count for this thread 🙂

    No, there’s no bike, but you are clearly the experts at this game. And it’s been bugging me for several years. Sorry to barge in though 😳

    I even wondered about the breed of sheep 😯

    The sheep have been recently shorn which makes ID difficult at that resolution. Could be Welsh Mountain though, but could just as easily be North Country Cheviots

    How’s about..

    Excuse the thoroughly pissed off looking lass, I dragged my sister out on this ride with promises of sweet singletrack and cake. Nirvana was a hill too far for her so she stashed her bike in the undergrowth and walked it. She didn’t even make the cake… poof!

    Esme’s looks like your neck of the woods Farmer, Langorse way? Might leave that one with you 🙂

    Yours looks to be Torridon way. Certainly NW Highlands

    Pretty sure Esmes is not that local to me or I would recognise it. What is confusing me is the low narrow ridge or middle. I do not know of anything like it anywhere in the Brecon Beacons

    Yep, Tollie path. A great out and back, despite mardy siblings.
