For those that have nothing better to do....

Which Rats tracks will take you to:-

1. Africa
2. Australia
3. Canada
4. Chicago
5. Dun Laoghaire
6. England
7. England (again)
8. Gibraltar
9. Hong Kong
10. India
11. London
12. Malta
13. New York
14. New Zealand
15. Sandycove
16. Scotland
17. Singapore
18. Tokyo

And while there, which tracks will provide you with a smattering of

1. African
2. American
3. British
4. English
5. French
6. French (again)
7. Japanese
8. Kenyan
9. Polish
10. Spanish

Will concede that knowing one song gets you about half the points, and that one is tenuous but whatever...

Best of British/Irish/Danish etc etc etc.

p.s. Just to clarify, in the second part it's the word itself that's mentioned in tracks, not a foreign phrase in said language.

Jules,

Good start. I'll give you Africa, India, Australia, Malta, Gibraltar, Canada and British from the song that ArrGee detests, and Japanese and Tokyo do indeed appear in Go Man Go.

Can't give points for Whitehall I'm afraid. I'm looking for the word London.

p.s. Talking of places, G&S Rats look like they're lined up for Cheltenham Friday 6/5. Tempted?

Tongue Twister- Polish polish is probably pricey.

Can anyone improve on that?
