I’m absolutely delighted that you didn’t have a pic of those islanders off the Aussie coast winning some rugby competition or other, thanks 😉
Is 3 something to do with Low Wattage’s monumental cruise up the ‘ditch’ and perhaps something he omitted to tell us? 🙂
I like the morris dance in No. 1! 🙂
Hi! Soutie – no 8 is right!
1) Australia comes second in the Ashes?
How tactfully put, Sipu!
4.Death of Mabarak
7. and Liz Taylor
13. Norwegian massacre
17. USA leaves Irak
Janus – have a re-think on no 4,
but the rest are right!
Oh dear –
Sipu, I reckon that to get a tick you should have mentioned The Sprinkler. Boadicea must be slipping. 😦
Janus – Mubarak isn’t dead – yet.
Oops! Rumours exaggerated and all that…. 😦
You know what, I was totally unaware of the Sprinkler phenomenon until you mentioned it and I looked it up. On a technicality, I think that photograph was actually taken in 2010 following the 4th MCG test.
Icelandic volcano, with spewing ash cloud… number 10. Fantastic photo. April 2011
Number 10, for my comment above!
Japanese tsunami, 13th March 2011, for number 6?
#12 Last flight of the Space Shuttle. Atlantis landing for the last time
Pseu! no 10 is a fantastic picture – but it isn’t in Iceland…
… however no 6 is right. 🙂
FEEG – correct 🙂
No2, Is it the re-opening of Terminal 5?
No Ferret!
#11 Woman Speaks With Her Own Voice After Larynx Transplant!
#15 Looks like that nice man DSK resigning his post as MD of the IMF in favor of that nice Christine Lagarde. ( I just love acronyms)
Soutie: Number 3 looks like the Bahamas, I was not heading that way but stranger things have happened.
I would guess it’s Hurricane Irene calling at the Bahamas on her way to Delaware.
Hiya Boadicea. i think 4. is the Arab Spring revolution and the downfall in particular of Hosni Mubarak in Egypt.
OZ
And 3. is the cyclones that devastated Queensland.back in February
OZ
No 2. Is it the terrorist attack on the airport in Moscow?
No 5. Jane Russell, who died earlier this year, I think.
5. Death of Jane Russell, 20th February 2011 (spotted by the NSW)
OZ
10. The Icelandic ash cloud over the Grimsvotn volcano, May 2011.
OZ
No 10. Is the volcano in Chile.
16. Latest Mars mission launched, November 2011 (also deduced by the NSW, dammit)
OZ
2 Iceland wrecking air travel?
9. Americans celebrating the death of Bin Laden?
Good Morning!
Sipu – yes for no 11.
LW – no for both 15 and 3.
OZ – 3, 4 and 16 right.
Araminta – 2, 5 and 10 right.
Christina – no 9 correct.
🙂
No.15. ETA ceasing hostilities.
Well done Araminta!
Boadicea, I’m cheating now!
I’m using Wiki 2011, so, the only one missing is a treaty between Indian and Bangladesh to end the border dispute, No 14, I think.
Boadicea's Chariot 
8 William marries Kate
