Got em all wrong, does that mean I go back to middle age, but don't pass go and don't collect £200?
I also found the deliberate mistake - the Canary Islands are in the Atlantic not the Pacific.

The Canary Islands are in the Atlantic not Pacific Ocean - clearly an American quiz as they shouldn’t spell “colour” either. :bounce:
There would appear to be a surfeit of prolixity and sesquipedalian content today please do not use a big word when a singularly un-loquacious and diminutive linguistic expression will satisfactorily accomplish the contemporary necessity
