Satellite Game

[Charles]

Following on from Brian Elliott's highly succesful winter (where am I?) game - try and guess where these places are. I have changed the names so don't attempt a 'save as' as you're wasting your time. The winner gets a a couple of free beers from me at Ribex 2005!
These photos are numbered A through to I -

You are not to guess individual photos, rather compile your list alphabetically.
Sorry Petrov, this goes for you too....
The sat images are from all over the world - they are not as obscure as one might think.
On Saturday I will be listing some very substantial clues which would make it a lot easier - so, watch this space!

Will hold you to that. Although Mr Jackeen didn't do a single thing. He was watching Sky Sports at the time.

BTW wasn't Kilimanjaro given as a birfday pressie to the cousins who ruled Tanzania by Queen Vic or someone important like that?
So mebbe not Kenyan any more...the border did used to have a nice straight line with that one little birthday pressie blip
