Bit of guess on my side a bit of the old grey sells

Lake Louise absolutely beautiful!

I second Roy's comment about percentages 😊

Never been to Canada and did not recognise the names. So Canada was my guess.😂

Hi, it is funny when I am right I gain 1% and when wrong I lose 3%. Got a feeling I am not going anywhere.
I must travel a bit more!
Roy

Lucky, never heard of them 😊

As a Canadian had better not have missed Lake Louise as I have pictures of the lake taken on holiday.

Boy I missed that!! Never heard of Lake Louise…but there is a town called Fairview just east of McKinney….

Looking at my performance, I need the easier ones.😬

Agreed Doogle👍
Since the recent revision of the question selection things have got rather silly.
Not taxing the few remaining grey cells at all🙄

The volume though a port is normally a reflection of the tonnage of shipping and not cargo or passengers. Durban is a port serving the northern east coast as well as Johannesburg and the rest of the North of South Africa. Most of the sea freight for Zimbabwe and Botswana comes in via Durban. Cape Town is the next busiest port in South Africa. There is another port that you never really hear about on the west coast north of Cape Town, Saldanha Bay, which loads a large volume of bulk carriers with iron ore. Hope this is helpfull.

The clue is in the name 😂

That was a head scratcher ,not!!!😂😂

Archimedes screw still used today on some small hydro generators.

Seen it on mythbusters last week but do remember from history lessons so does sink in in the end lol

History lessons from an early age remembered 😀

Hi everyone.

The question, however, could be misleading.
Asking which port is the busiest, without specifying whether you mean cargo traffic or passenger traffic, or naval units (which is often not always available), can lead to error.

For example: in Italy is Napoli (Naples) or Genova busier?
The port of Naples, one of the largest in the Mediterranean, doubles that of Genoa in terms of passenger traffic.
The port of Genoa more than doubles that of Naples in terms of freight traffic.
Who's first then? doubt may come.
the port of Naples, although large, is also surpassed in terms of freight traffic by the port of Augusta in Sicily which few people even know about in Italy.

However, the port of Durban may currently already be overtaken.

I guessed Mombasa as well. Afterwards I google it and Mombasa is the busiest port in Central and Eastern Africa but not for the whole of Africa apparently.

Luckily I only knew one as a port. The correct one.🥹

Guessed wrong for Mombasa, hey ho- you live and learn 😉

I guessed a container port would be busiest, did'nt know whether the rest were.
Roy

Missed this one tonight….

Mayflower

Hi Doogle did they do a return trip?
Roy

Couldn't get this wrong, some of my wife's ancestors travelled on her.

Good thing I didn’t miss this, I would have been ostracized by my family, friends and possibly one or more cats!!🤣

Had to think about this 😊

Had to think on that one

I recall our children watching the Goonies over and over.

Not a film buff, got this wrong 👎

There was no option for 'passenger' in that one....

What blows my mind about Midway, is Ensign George Gay. After having his Devastator shot out from underneath him by 4-5 Zeros, he had to hide under his seat flotation to keep from being strafed, he then had a ringside seat to see 3 of the 4 Japanese carriers get hit by the Dauntless dive bombers. That’s just nuts. Oh I agree with Roy, the latest Midway movie is the one to watch. Very well done. Woody Harellson surprised me by how well he played the part of Nimitz. And the boys at station HYPO got within 5 miles, 5 degrees and 5 minutes of the location, bearing and time of the Japanese attack at Midway….without today’s electronic help. Outstanding….

Have to be careful what one says here as it might be the subject of the next question!
Still the Battle of Midway is the one to watch. Not Charlton Heston but the last one. Battle 360 do a very good animation of the event as well.

And what would we be doing without McClusky?

The Japanese Admiral managed to do all the wrong things, but in the right order.
Roy

Definitely a Nip in the air that day.

Made me think back to the movie, Tora! Tora! Tora!

For those who have never had the pleasure..

Ah! Good old Basil Fawlty of Fawlty Towers.
John Cleese at his best.
😎

Don't mention the war! I did once but I think I got away with it....

Man, if I had missed this one I’d be run out of the country…

Keeping on the "straight and narrow " this morning 😊

Come on Australia. You are catching me up. Shame that the scoring is not based on golf.😬😬

Hair..... The cast crawling over the seats to the stage was a bit creepy!😁

I saw HAIR in about 1968 I was 15 or 16 saw it on a school trip ti Birmingham (uk), sadly we were sat behind the performers.😐😂

Hi I saw Hair in 1973 I was on a long course for work and it came to an end and members wanted to celebrate. I got volunteered to go to the theatre and book 18 tickets!

We ended up in the front row of the Circle, the lads cheered etc but it did not do much for me I am afraid. I was married with 2 young children and a lovely wife. So the occasional nude lady singing was not a big deal.
After the show they went off to drink etc, I quietly left to get back to the family.
cheers
Roy

That's the one, couldn't remember it🤣

HAIR! A 1967 Broardway production that ran in the West End around 1968.

Wasn't there a song "age of aquarius" I seem to remember 🤔

This statement that Livingstone was the first European to see the falls.
There are extracts from his journal that indicate that he named them after Queen Victoria.

A little Spanish is good.

I grew up in South Africa so these explorers were dutifully covered in history as Imperial exploiters of Africa 🤣
