I’m confused… Wales in in the _County_ of England or is it the _City_ of England?

Of course, _everyone_ knows that County or City of (whichever the hell it is) England is in the northern part of Scotland (well, technically Lapland, I guess. But that’s more of a local place-name; mostly only the indigenous Bushmen\* call it that).

I believe Scotland is next to Estonia, right? (Or maybe Eritrea. I often get the two confused because they border each other. It’s quite embarrassing that I mix them up really, as I commute daily to Asia and know the little island quite well!).

\*Yes, I know. That’s a not very “PC” name. :rolleyes: Me a Culpa. A big, dumb, Culpa. I suppose I should more properly refer to them as the Arapaho or the Incas. But at least I have the geography correct, which is more than I can say for most folks!
