I like this site. Cheers Nem.

I can nail Europe and all the States of the USA now, pretty much every time. Working on the state capitals, they're a biatch and a half.

It's good mindless background clicking, that may prove useful one day. (Although outside the context of a pub quiz, I'm not sure how useful we're talking here)

It's wierd the way you learn stuff.

Mixing up Albania and Armenia.

Armenia = mean.

Further away from me makes it mean somehow. Why doesn't matter, so long as I remeber that Armenia is the one furthest away.

I remeber to put all the M's near Albania.

Saves me confusing Macedonia, Moldova and Montenegro.

Montenegro to the West, Macedonia to it's East. I remeber that coz of the River Don in Scotland is on the East coast. Then past Serbia and Romania we've got Moldova (coz it's ova there)

Saves me getting the Malta and Cyprus islands mixed up too. All the M's near Albania, so Malta is the one closest to Albania.

I love this site, gonna slowly learn all the maps and capitals. The rivers, mountains and s**t too, then I'll wow girls in nightclubs with my Geographic know-how.
