I got WoGE #321<\/a> rather quickly, so I feel a little guilty. Perhaps because\u00a0I was actually trying to work at the time. But I saw @FelixBossert tweet\u00a0about it, took a peek and instantly recognised it as a drumlin field from\u00a0the British Isles. Spotting the bit of sea on the right hand side helped me\u00a0narrow it down quickly to Donegal in the north of Ireland. As it turned out\u00a0I’ve drunk Guinness, if not in the actual image, at least nearby.
\nTo assuage my irrational guilt, I’ve tried to put this post up nice and\u00a0quick. Also I’ve chosen an area that, as far as I’m aware, none of you\u00a0players of the game have drunk Guinness in. I won’t guess how hard it is,\u00a0but I’ll not invoke the Schott Rule, so no restrictions.<\/p>\n

If you have no idea what I am talking about, you are in for a treat! This\u00a0is a game that is an excellent excuse to trawl through Google Earth. Rules\u00a0are best expressed here<\/a>, but in summary, look at the entire Earth’s surface\u00a0until you find the area shown in this picture. Then find out about its\u00a0Geology. Then add the location and Geological description in the comments.\u00a0If you are first, you get the honour of hosting the next one.\u00a0If you are a veteran WoGEr, this is the first one I’ve hosted on my new\u00a0blog, so please look around while you’re firing up Google Earth.
\nI’m looking for a mention of a fairly specific piece of Geology, but this\u00a0may be a little ambitious of me. We’ll see, but enjoy the lovely picture\u00a0any way (click on it for a bigger one). The image is rotated so that the\u00a0North arrow is pointing to somewhere between 9 and 10 o’clock. Or a\u00a0vertical arrow on the image points east, if that makes more sense.<\/p>\n

PS this post vanished and was hosted by Felix for a short while due to technical difficulties, thanks again Felix.<\/p>\n
