1. A sheep named Dolly, named after Dolly Parton apparently.
2. Alexander Fleming.
3. The prohibition of the production, importation, transportation and sale of alcoholic beverages. I imagine it wasn’t popular.
4. 343.
5. Judy. (Judy Garland)
6. The area is known as the Camargue and is between the two arms of the Rhone Delta.
7. Seize the day.
8. Rene Descartes – or as the Monty Python team sang in the 1970s – “I drink therefore I am.”
9. Budapest.
10. Usain Bolt, retired Jamaican sprinter who ran 100m in 9.58 seconds. Hardly believable.
