    That’s a pretty lame contest. Contestants were told to make notes from an exact list of famous Europeans or birds with some lame architecture on the other side. Can you imagine the excruciating process of finding and sorting either list - “Marie Curie can’t be there because she left a negative comment around the cleanliness of her room at a Belgian conference!”, “Our prime minister died from an allergic reaction to curlews!”
