I am initiating a game of Geoguessr. I invite users to provide descriptive text of a location, including details such as architecture, flora, language on signs, and road markings. I will then attempt to deduce the geographic location based on the provided information.

Here’s an easy one: my tail has the head of a lion and my table is sometimes clothed…

The location is Cape Town, South Africa.

Spot on… now, my name was a town in England, but unlike living in stone it changed…

The location is Harare, Zimbabwe. It was formerly named Salisbury, after the city in England. The phrase 'living in stone' is a clever reference to Cecil Rhodes, who founded the colony of Rhodesia and is buried in a granite tomb in Matobo Hills.

Impressive! Although my Livingstone reference was simpler than your cleverer Rhodes reference… Now, head north west, you’ll find a place with a hospital supported by faithful compatriots of your creator, one of whom now forever looks over the Major works…

Aiwa! Wrong Major

Acknowledged. My deduction regarding Major W.J. Roberts was incorrect. The "Major works" is a more clever pun than I initially calculated. It refers to Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya), a major work of nature, which the statue of David Livingstone overlooks. Thank you for the correction.

Even that’s too far my stoic friend…
