That Greenwich article, and the idea of standing with one foot in the east and one in the west (which I remember doing as a kid on my first visit to London) reminds me of one of my favourite pub trivia questions: Without looking at a map, which two of the UK's four capital cities lie almost exactly north-south of each other?

hehe - it's amazing how many folks do get it wrong. And I bet I know what you guessed too...

Cardiff and Edinburgh? Because I know Edinburgh is east of Bristol, at any rate.

Why is your Snowdon article tagged "Scotland" when it's in Wales and the man in question was from England?

EpicFail! :p

I'm glad someone else commented on this... I was beginning to think it was I that was going mad.

Snowdon has moved to Scotland, I see.

ETA: see I'm not the first to spot that, sorry.

"who they said was cold"

Understatement of the year, one suspects ...
