10 / 12. Amazed that I got so many! I have been to most of these places though. Something must have rubbed off on me!

5/12 Not Irish.

4/12 today - not a vast improvement, by any means.

8/12 great improvement from 10 months ago

9/12, I guess all that Ken Bruen, Tana French, Oscar Wilde, John Connolly, Tim Pat Coogan and the rest paid off…to some degree. They sure were/are a pleasure to read anyway.

speaking Welsh helps although the languages are rather different. "Deri" is Oak treas in Welsh so Derry was one for free.

Quite pleased with 8/12, can’t say I knew them but they sounded right?

Wow, I didn't even attempt this one - I might just possibly have got one out of the twelve. Good to see a quiz that is a real challenge, even if it is too tough fore me!

9/12. Been to Ireland, but don't remember all the translations.
