Thank you @chaz, thought I recognised the cemetery name, now onto your cemetery….not forgetting I’m still after @dickaren identification, which is giving me a headache😁

Richard wins again,

one of our locals we passed every time we went in and out of the village, there are 3 in the town/city but with the last having a SAD, this has 3 SAD's buried side by side.

How about this one?

A clue for this one:-

All 1918 burials and the majority are Australian. It is a near neighbour of somewhere associated much more with the 1916 battle.

Hi @dickaren

How about Frechencourt Communal Cemetery taken from the side of the chapel? All bar a handful AIF.

Well done Knotty,

Querrieu being the nearby neighbour

This looks like a double track and French at a guess. If that is the case I'm wondering if it is on the Douai-Arras line. As usual you may be able to rearrange the words tree. barking, wrong and up to make a well known phrase or sentence....

No prizes for guessing this one but it was a very lucky compositio

That’s lovely. I wonder if the crock of gold was on Lone Tree? Got a few rainbows on my last trip over. This could be a candidate for a where is this I guess?

Except you’re already there 😊
 

(Edit) - I wasn’t wearing my glasses when I replied before, only just realised that’s a different rainbow! It’s near a windfarm so slightly favours it being on the Somme. I also have a vague feeling we’ve visited it in this thread before with a different pic. But … both hunches probably wrong 🤣

Lovely rainbows. Dud Corner looks lovely in the low sun and the second one is, as so often a mystery to me.

Pete, half correct. Richard, your comment did have me scratching my head until I saw your edit! It’s not the Somme by the way.

That's progress for me; I'm guessing France but not double track. But a guess is all it is, that might make it one of the ones down the Arras-Albert line maybe? I may have to find that driver cam of the run across the battlefields if it is still on YT.

I’ve no idea if it’s double track…Definitely France. Geographically you were half right. 
EDIT, Google Earth shows double track.
