    Not sure if it's a deliberate error but the question says Great Portland Place not Street so is wrong (I didn't spot this so I've got it wrong if it's meant to be Place). The other correct one is Edgeware Road

    I've raised this on their wall as the river Tobermory is printed on Ordinance Survey maps. We'll see.

    I got "adelaide" wrong as I put Womble and it was both. I got the others right though, I knew Orinoco as both, but I remember that when explaining the Womble names, the author used actual places to name them, not rivers, except Orinoco.
    That's why i got Adelaide wrong -DUH!!

    The only thing to do is post on their wall. The more complaints the better.
