0 out of 10. I'm so ignorant I even that the A symbol was something to do with Anarchy. I thought the French river was the Rhone and hadn't a clue to anything else. From Martin Amis, Coleridge was the last man to have read everything, now no-one has read a fraction of anything...
2/10: Fort Worth and the Loire
One because I got diverted on flight out of there to Denver and had to sit wedged in a seat next to the fattest, sweatiest redneck in recorded history for 3 hours with no air conditioning. Awful.
And the Loire because they have:
a) very nice white wine
b) very nice chateaux
You did very well, P-G. Not many troubled the scorers. Tin Drummer, join the club.
