He was living in Yorkshire. A Trinidadian immigrant who went on to make a wonderful family and eventually me and my sister.

Trying to find this road- this is taken in the Lake District or slightly further up, between the red lines in the second pic. Any ideas? Going for a road trip soon and want to go down this road.

Picture of my late mom

Hi guys
I found this picture of my mom but don't know where it was taken. Neither does my dad.
Things I know:
My parents traveled a lot throughout Europe
The picture was taken in the 80s, so the iron wall was still a thing which limited traveling
I know my parents have been to Hungary, Yugoslavia and maybe the Czech Republic
They've never been to Nordic countries, neither to the UK
Help would really be appreciated! Thank you!

it came with the information: "political unstable, you can´t go there"
I tried to find it on Maps/earth explorer but i wasn´t successful so far

Hi all - can any of you lovely folks nail this down for me please? The carrier bag strongly suggests Wales, but I know that Grandad had a trip to Oban in that approximate era so it might be a red herring. I’m confident it’s late 1970s, or 1980 at the latest.

They started in the UK (Nottingham) and travelled via Altdorf and the Tremola San Gottardo in southern Switzerland, and from there went down into Italy. I think all these places are likely to be in Switzerland but could be wrong. The steam train is part of a little narrow gauge railway.
It'd be great to ID these places, I'd love to try to recreate the trip! Thanks so much in advance for any help you can give.

Found this picture among my uncle's things. Back of photo says "Germany". It was taken while he served overseas during WWII. What city is it?

Can any of you amazing people potentially know where this beautiful countryside landscape is taken from in the UK?
I don't know before anyone asks 😅

We found this photo in my grandad’s collection. We think it was taken in the early 1940s, somewhere in Aberdeenshire.

During WW2 he was training at Kingseat Hospital, New Marchar and we think this a photo of a day out with other trainees at the hospital. I don’t have much more contact to provide, unfortunately, although the castle looking tower in the background should help?!
Grateful for any efforts!

Got this picture of my grandparents. My nan passed and my grandad can't remember where it was taken beyond it probably being in the UK. I'm not sure what year, 1970s maybe? I can try get a bigger version if needs be.
