Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    That would be a very long list. I'll have to change the poll options, which I can't.

    Unless you're Michael Palin...

    Technically i've been i Belgium as we had to wait there until our connecting flight arrived. We didn't actually leave the airport grounds but we did go outside. So does that count?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,533 ✭✭✭the keen edge


    Should I only include the countries I have visited that are recognised by the UN?.

    Also would East Germany, West Germany and the Federal Republic of Germany, count as 1 country or 3 countries?

    Excuse me but my comment was on topic :confused::confused:
    The Q was: How many countries you've been to?
    My query was that technically i've been to Belgium but i was only there for a few hours while we waited for a connecting flight!

    Well i would put Germany down as just 1.
    That just reminded me that i've been to The Vatican...theres an extra country that i could have included!

    Yeah okay I wasn't in Belgium long either. Had some greasy chips and went to Antwerp zoo. Then swiftly moved on south.

    Maybe the poll should now be for how many minutes before this thread gets shot down..."pointless thread is pointless"...ha :D

    Edit: ah I see its already been moved!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭Johro


    Looking at the poll results so far I'd say around 40% of pollsters are lying through their teeth:D
