    Cork is the second largest natural harbour in the world (don’t know which is the largest)

    Are you sure? I thought that was Mahon in Menorca (Sydney being the largest)

    What about Scapa Flow? 140sq miles

    Silverpigeon is in Guernsey? There’s not much mtbing there surely?

    Not very much at all unfortunately. There is a lively race scene though. Remember when you used to be able to go racing every weekend and see the same faces. It’s like that here.

    Exeter contains the narrowest street in the UK. It’s about 5mm narrower than a pair of pro tapers…..
