    Knocked off the leaderboard last week by American Geoguessr player "RC", I was determined to bounce back, return the favour and maybe even get in and around Samiam's brand spanking sub 5 minute effort.

    Worth looking at a few of the bus stop signs perhaps - obviously trying to read different stops is a nightmare but that curly M in round two gives greater manchester away straight away, thats the GMPTE logo. West Yorkshire has a distinctive design too, and Merseytravel (all Ms but very different and recognisable designs, and they're on most bus stops). London instantly recognisable of course too.
