Julie  -  forgot to mention 'Circus Circus Hotel' is in Reno, Nevada.  (Been there, done that, fantastic!).    Are you still stuck on No. 4?  Regardz, ja

[juliely]

Yes, Johnalex, I am still stuck on no.4 and it is driving me mad.

4. Hi Juliely  -  Do you know which area of USA?  Presumably the answer includes EL, AL or SEL but nothing springs to mind.  Will keep thinking . . .

I think 4 is Buffalo, some clever person gave it to me but I cant rember how it fitted

[juliely]

Johnalex, it is somewhere between Lake Erie and Syracuse.

Buffo is a comic actor inItalian opera of the 18th century. That with la reversedis Buffalo.

Good luck with the rest.I'll keep trying/
