Trouville-Sur-Mer West Pier (France)

Hela II

Let's see if this one is a "keeper"?

Cabo San Agustin, Spain

http://www.qsl.net/w8tts/LH-PH/SPA044.jpg

Could not find it listed until c, s, or a on my list.
Derith

Derith you posted that one before, in Part XXXIV. In the first posting you spelled it Augustin even though both the old link and this last one spell it Agustin. In other words....you get the buzzer!

Why did I know that you were going to say exactly what you said??? I probably spelled it thinking St. Augustine. So, I will go searching again....a's, e's, and i's are hard to come by.

Aka Saki, Japan

What about this one Sue?

Derith

That one looks ok Derith except, of course, for those dratted vowels again but fortunately I still have a few in reserve.

Irish Qua (Isle of Man)

(I'm waiting for an M as I found a really neat one, hint, hint.....)

Honfleur Old Tower, France

Will be gone over the weekend to celebrate my grandtwins 8th birthday. Keep playing and I will rejoin you soon.

Helliar Holm (Scotland)

Anybody steals that "M", I'll break your arm!

Punta Lucretia

Cuba

That Metal Man may be the most unusual lighthouse ever!

Yes, I'd been waiting for that "M" to post it. Since Derith and Bryan hadn't fed me one I had to set myself up! The Metal Man is also featured in Sharma Krauskopf's book "Irish Lighthouses". I took advantage of Amazon's free shipping offer a while back and picked up that one, also her book on Scotish Lighthouses and another LH book.

And now....drum roll please!

Update:

Congratulatiosn to Mombo, Nana, Chesapeake Bryan and the others who have participated in this 'Longest Running Thread in History' on the Collector Forums!

Antofagasta Outer Breakwater

what are the rules?

Poronaisk, Russia

http://www.qsl.net/w8tts/LH-PH/ASR057.jpg

We had a nice quick trip to Atlanta and the girls really enjoyed their birthday party. Hard to believe that they are 8...tomorrow, as a matter of fact.

It has been great fun playing this game with Sue, Bryan, and early on with Paul...I am always amazed that there are still so many lighthouses that we have not posted.
Derith

Basically, you need to come up with the name of a non-US lighthouse that BEGINS with the LAST LETTER of the most recently posted lighthouse. The name you come up with CANNOT have been used before in the game.

Here's a new one for members with fewer than 500 posts:

This one may have been posted already, but I don't have it on my list. Sue, to buzz or not to buzz, that is the ?????
Derith

Souter, England

No Derith that one wasn't on my list, but it was in my favorites! Here's the link I had if you care to see it.

http://www.lighthouse.fsnet.co.uk/noticeboard/museums/northeast.html

Whew! Thanks for sharing your link. It is stunning, isn't it? I'd like to see it one day.

Eddystone Rock, UK

Seagirt, Eddystone was posted many threads ago. If you want to join in this game you should do a search to see if a light's been posted. This may or may not work depending on if the light was entered in "English" or in the country's language which oftentimes includes accent marks. The unwritten rule here is that a photo link to the lighthouse named must be provided.

Thanks, Mombo! I'll be more careful from now on. By the way, anyone who likes this game can check my US and Int'l Lighthouse game out, too on this board!

KILCREDAUN, IRELAND

http://www.ais.org/~lsa/ireland.html#Kilcredaun

John and Mary, since Eddystone Rock was disallowed, the next lighthouse must start with with an "E" or an "O".

Eagle Island, Ireland

With St. Patrick's coming I thought it would be nice to have a Irish lighthouse.


http://cil2.adnet.ie/index.php3?LighthouseID=34

Sorry, Eagle Island was posted in Part III. Please use the search feature to check which lighthouses have been posted.

OK Let's try again. This time I used the search and did not find it.

Outer Skerry, UK


http://www.lhdepot.com/database/uniquelighthouse.cfm?value=1907

Scotland apparently has an Outer Skerry Lighthouse (1908) as well as an Out Skerries Lighthouse (1854). Neither of them has been posted so far. Since the light in your link is of the Out Skerries light and I couldn't find a photo link of the other one we'll go with Out Skerries (Scotland) for this entry.
