Peehs-ing Around the World - Reveal

ShaneU

I hate Canada and Finland, that is all.

Great shout on Serbia. I’d have thought after the wars they’d have carved some corridor to the sea

Have you any connection to the Army, or what made you think of Chad? Middle of nowhere in Africa, I wouldn't have thought it would spring to mind for most people

Nope, absolutely nothing to do with the army - couldn't be further from it... I'm a writer/actor/comedian/etc.

Chad was always my go to in Pub Quizzes when I didn't have a clue what the answer was for a geography question. Think it even worked once, so it was the first one that sprung to mind.

Sadly for them, Croatia does not give up easily!

Ireland has for quite some time been Lesotho's biggest foreign aid donor.

Ah but if you look closely Bosnia does have a little bit of coast. Which is also news to me.

It does, about 12 miles of it. When you're driving down the coast you come to a border crossing, then a small town called Neum, then another border crossing. I remember we stopped for a beer there, just because it was a different country we could have a beer in. Not much to see iirc.

Presume there’s a port there? I know I could Google it but nice to talk or post about something other than you know what

I'm not ashamed to be in last position because some people (not naming names) were clearly cheating and doing research; unless we have numerous geography experts around here all of a sudden.

I was under the impression Nepal was a big country for some inexplicable reason. No more wrong answers to come from me so I'll be climbing up the table soon, watch out Homer J. Fong.

Barney92

Countries that have English as an official language.

There were four incorrect answers here for different reasons, but not a bad round to get one wrong I suppose.

No idea, tbh. The bar was just off the main road and we only stayed there long enough for one drink.

Barney92

Homer remains on top and begins to build a bit of a buffer, whilst bubbly is flirting dangerously with the bottom end of the table.

I like that Lesotho was a one pointer for BuileBeag, and they managed to avoid it in the landlocked round.

ShaneU

Hahaha disaster

Ah FFS Levar, will you stop copying my homework :pac:

FFS I admired your fighting talk until you started your comeback by being the only other person to pick Jamaica. I’m unthanking your post

Hadn't heard of that before, looks pretty cool!

Sporcle was my main geography education tool. Played the "name all the countries of the world" and "all the capitals of the world" quizzes back in college until I could name all of them. Also all the American states.

But even prior to that I've always loved things to do with countries, capitals, flags etc. since I was a kid.

Barney92

In the show down of the century, which would win? Andorra or Brazil, one Sheeped and the other Peehs-ed

It's the only reason I'm in the mix at all! I've learnt a lot I don't know

ShaneU

Yeah I definitely sheeped again

Barney92

Countries whose capitals start with the same letter as their name. Only one wrong answer for this one, which was Clarabel's "This one". Homer picks out another Peehs to maintain his position

Boards is starting to get a bit iffy for me but hopefully it can hang on.

Homer remains out in front, but Sheridan is off the bottom.
