[richard]

Number 2.................Monaco

[GLCQuantum]

Number 3 and 4 are correct there Mr P

Number 1's a tricky one as there are different ways of measuring it so lets say.... the average yearly temperature since recordings makes this the world's hottest country.

[GLCQuantum]

Monaco I believe is the second Richard but should be number 1 in my eyes.

[Frank Hovis]

Question 3:
How can 'Woolly Mammoth' be right?
Were there no whales during the last ice age or have they evolved in a mere 10,000 years?

[GLCQuantum]

Sorry... when I said 'of the ice age' I meant... well just that really. Animals that aren't around today.

[Frank Hovis]

Ah-ha. In that case I'll rephrase my point

Question 3:
How can 'Woolly Mammoth' be right?
The Megalodon Shark was bigger than a Woolly Mammoth AND died out during the Pleistocene period.

The wrath of Jeebus is upon me; for it was that I had to turn to the false prophet Google to find that out.

The Vatican is the smallest country.

[Norseman]

1) Libya
2) The Vatican State
3) Mammoth
4) Bee Hummingbird
5) Thomas Müller, Germany, together with 2 or 3 others. But he won the golden shoe and ranked the best player.

[GLCQuantum]

All of the above was what I was originally looking for but there are question marks for number 1 (Ethiopia) and Q.3 thanks to Frank.

A sporting theme for the next one....

1. Who is the tallest current premier league player?

2.............Ivan something
3.............Hurricane H

5.............Ryan giggs

[GLCQuantum]

Number 1 correct there buddy...

[Frank Hovis]

Could #3 be Jimmy White?

The rest I have no idea (what do you mean the rest ! )

[GLCQuantum]

Good try Hovis but not correct... I actually thought the snooker one was the easiest of the lot myself. Think of the fastest form of transport humans have come up with so far... it's all in the name.

No. 5 was placed as a spurs fan.... there's a big clue for you.
