...two or three South American countries, which are the first ones to spring to mind?

I see I am too late to the party but just to prove I do know some joggraffee, I thought of Brazil, Columbia and Chile.

Brazil
Peru
Argentina

Well, I am sure many of us could have named more, but you only asked for the first 2 or 3 that came to mind.😆 Which one did you think of first OP?

One of my favourite lines from Pitch Perfect, "where is Copenhagen?" "I don't know; I failed maps". Grin

I'd have said Peru, Brazil and French Guiana (which you should include) if it helps your experiment.

Admittedly French Guiana is in there for me due to the rocket - without that I'd have not recalled it and probably have said Argentina or Ecuador.

Technically, isn't French Guiana a departement of France and therefore France, not a country in SA? Or you could say France is in SA, weirdly.

My own answer was biased because I wanted to know whether someone would think of Paraguay or Uruguay first. Thus my own answer would have been Paraguay and Uruguay!

Oh hello can of worms! 😂 It is indeed an overseas department of France

IKR? Is France in SA or is French Guiana? Enquiring minds need to know.

We could add the Falkland Islands into this argument too.

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia.

slowly watches thread teetering on the break

Aren't we all made of stardust and are thus effectively all the one place? Or are we made of different stars (or different dusts)? Is it, in fact, the case that when someone meets their "soulmate" it is dust recognising other dust as coming from the same star?

Or is it the case that I should get my arse off MN and go do some cleaning?
