Yes, and misconstrued; silly, perhaps...


Wait... after researching a bit, I have discovered I am within 2° of a bisecting line... very keen, Tully. It would seem my unconsciousness is doling out clues without me being aware of it. Weird.

Post-Edit: Somewhat coincidental now that I realize we both have participated in that other thread. But it had no influence in me choosing where I stand.

No, not in the capital. (And to clarify, the Olympic Spanish Basketball thread was to what I was referring.)

No.

This shouldn't last too much longer, so I'll reiterate... two degrees.

I never said "by the ocean"... did I?

Is my subconscious gving you clues again??
I am working against myself here!!


BUT...



Nonetheless...

You have sucessfully invaded my vicinity!

I was amazed that you were able to discern I was so close to a bisecting earth line, even if my comment of "perhaps" was in regards to me being "silly". That was just a coincidence, I think.

unclephil also gave out the best description of a NH, WH, city... coupled with being near the PM... I thought it would be a cinch.

However, Barcelona is "East" of the Meridian, and there are some obscure Spanish cities also on the northern tip of the African continent. But it checks out: Coordinates : 43°15′51″N 2°55′25.50″W

Another nice fun fact of la ciudad de Bilbao:

It is the site of a Guggenheim Museum
