Bigger. Some might say too big

The Democratic Republic of Congo was known as Zaire.

# Ah,
but there is a smaller country that neighbours the Democratic Republic of Congo to the west that is also called Congo. It's between Gabon and the Democratic Republic.

# I knew that
When I was 15 I learnt every capital city in the world. I used to read Atlases when I was a child.

# Why?
Or is that not a good question?
what is in Bogota?
(I helped save b3ta! mnb098mnb used to be here, Thu 15 Jan 2004, 22:38, archived)
# my dad worked for the embassy
Bogotá is a lot like any other city really, or at least any other city in a third world country

edit: though some of the chief exports of Colombia are oil, flowers, emeralds and gold

Dod you have a picture of the UmBongo Monkey?

P.S. - I won an Um-Bongo Limbo dancing competition at Butlins, in about 1980 something.

# Lies! I tell you, LIES!!!
I've actually been to the Congo (proper Mr Congo and not that jumped up fake DR Congo), and in all the time I was there, I never once saw ANYONE drink Um Bongo.

I did, however, see plenty of Vimto, which is found in its natural form in a lake just outside Brazzaville.
