Early on in this game someone rebuked us because people didn't know their own country.

Since I have hardly travelled abroad I don't have any idea about many of these posts. I don't mind because it is interesting to see them and learn a little. Just an observation.

So it somewhere hilly in northern Europe with a slow moving possibly canalised or weired river. How about Belgium?

My impression is that the majority have been in Britain. I've just checked through those posted in June so far, and 13 have been British and 9 from abroad.

Alsace-Lorraine?

I haven't a clue really but I will try to narrow it down before someone comes along who knows the place.

Spot on. Have you been there? There's an impressive viaduct over the river not far away.

I'm afraid not. Have toured many areas of France including Brittany and I was drawn there in relation to your photo due to the scenescape, simply a process of elimination therefter. It looks lovely however.

Someone feel free to post up the next pic as required....all good stuff.
