    Nice one smccarrick. What age are you?

    I got the idea for this thread when I was remembering a fellow that I used to work with. He had a piece of paper in his wallet with the list of countries on it ... and he was all excited because his trip to Lisbon got him up to number 50.

    By the way, all those Islands are part of Spain.. and the Isle of Man is part of the UK.
