Self-snark: Captain Cook? Really? THAT was the best I could do? Also … not a lot of love for Winnie-ther-Pooh, eh? Also … will partial credit be given for #3, when I meant El Dorado but couldn’t remember the Spanish?

  12. If Franklin, Scott, Amundsen, or Shackleton come up high here, I’m going to be very annoyed with myself. :slight_smile:

  13. Which became a real place after the Doolittle Raid. Well, a real ship.

  14. So many to choose from, but this city always brings images of polar life to me, even though I believe it to be south of Helsinki.

  15. Sticking with my icy theme, of course.

  16. Dr. Doom’s nation. Could this be the conch?

I’m glad someone else plumped for “El Dorado” although looking back “Atlantis” seems to be so damned obvious now. Glad to see I’m not the only one to choose “Ayers Rock” but I think I was overly obtuse when I went for the Southern Cross, not only out of the Zodiac, but out of most of the Northern Hemisphere’s view :smack:

I had to google the last one as I couldn’t remember the name - they invaded England in a series in the comic 2000AD,

60

I was going to use that, remembering my old thread on here asking if anyone read 2000AD. Nobody would remember the bloody Volgs thought I :smack:

EDIT: I had to Google for that country from Dilbert too, I remembered something about a crappy country full of mud that Dogbert visited from time to time.
