This is the only one I can't get and it's doing my head in now.

Capitals denote names/places etc

Brainstorming---

But that lessens the chances of ME winning

OT slightly.

The magazine that the quiz came from has just started out. I bought issue 1 and I thoroughly recommend it. It's pay what you like, they suggest £10 which I thought was steep until I recieved it and it's more like a book. Will def be buying issue 2 when it comes out. Some of the articles are better than others but overall it's a cracking read.

Just paid a fiver for the first issue. It's not much more than 442 or World Soccer so worth a shot.
