To play this:

Share a place name - town, city, mountain, river or lake starting with the letter which comes after the person who posted before you.  
It would be fun if you choose places from your own country.  
We will work our way through the alphabet and then keep going over and over again.  
_note_ As Mahoney pointed out (thankyou) you will need to add a few words to your place name to turn it into a post. Include the text ‘Here is my suggestion:’ (or some text of your own).

So let’s begin with:

Here is my suggestion:  
Aberdeen
