Where have NSC posters been in the world?

[ManOfSussex]

From the sky I've seen Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Central African Republic, Zimbabwe, Libya and Kent - all the world's nice places.

I've also seen Morocco over the water from Gibraltar.

Anyone been to Lundy Isle ?

Yes, the day after the 1983 cup semi final, we traveled on The Waverley paddle steamer which my late mother travelled on on the Clyde where she grew up. Not much there, 25 inhabitants and a pub called the Marisco Tavern that has an Evening Argus Brighton for the cup sticker in the window (it did in 1983 anyway)

All but two countries in South America, a couple of North African countries, 90% of Europe (the two countries I've not been to are being crossed off in September), about half of the US. I'm doing okay. Asia is definitely next on the list.

Got the boat from Corfu to Saranda in Albania in 1992, it was a bit of a dump full of street children, holes in road, deep holes and very little traffic except for some kids in a beat up German registered Golf doing handbrake turns in the main square, Apparently is a lovely resort these days frequented by Dutch and German tourists

My favourite places in the world are Varadero in Cuba, I went there in 1994, All inclusive was non existent and restaurants had very limited choice but there was beer and rum and the beaches were silent with no water sports or jet skis, it was truly beautiful.
And also Goa, spent a month there but unlikely to return as the wife, although enjoyed it prefers the hotels and facilities of Thailand.

One of Mark Thatcher's "escapades" involved an attempted coup in Equatorial Guinea. Several of the plotters were arrested and one of them died in prison, under torture it's rumoured.

Quite. Black Beach Prison has a fearsome reputation and the president was rumoured to indulge in cannibalism.

Also I'm claiming the shortest visit to a country, 11 minutes in Spain running for a connecting flight.

I'm claiming shorter. Skiing in La Thuile, Italy my sister-in-law and I skied down one particular slope which took us into France. We realised there was not much there that side of the mountain and got a button straight back up and went back into Italy. I'm sure we did it in less than 11 minutes

It was that silly little blue run at the bottom that goes from Italy into France.

Along with Ceuta and Melilla, would I be right in saying that Equatorial Guinea is the only country in Africa that does have one of English, French, Portuguese or Arabic as an official language?

I'm not sure exactly. I believe it is the only Spanish speaking colony in Africa if that helps?
