When (and Where) Taken location game

[Bonefish Blues]

A new game to waste our time with! Linky is at bottom.

Normally clicking on share results allows a paste of a summary of results (as you can see in your text box), but pistonheads config doesn't allow the full pasted display so all the symbols need to be taken out to make it display properly!

One of my best days today - there are one or two favourite locations that tend to come up, as you'll see when you've played it for a few weeks.

It's only a bit of fun (Cardle on steroids?), so I suggest standard protocols apply - google takes the fun away, and anyhow if you're stuck on one and want it there's one clue per day they've introduced to test, but tbh I've never used it.

I sent this game around at work and there's currently a debate about whether you're allowed to Google it or not, which would probably amuse anyone who's played the Where Was I game on here.
