I'm about to fall asleep, so rather than set a question, I'll hand over to the first person to post a new question, and if none is posted I'll think of one in the morning!

It was just a simple Chianti (not Classico) of a producer I didn't know. But as it was offered in the box were wines are sold off that are taken out of the shelf it didn't matter. It was reduced to just
3 Euros. So I thought I could make nothing wrong with that.

Derek, do you have a question? Otherwise I would have one that is connected to flags.

What happened to Andre? He was going to ask about something connected to flags. Surely the answer is "a pole".

OK. Here is my question:
There are two countries in the world that have a similar flag. So when the flag of country A is bleached out by the sun, it is turned into the flag of country B.
Name the two countries.
I'm off to bed now, so will not post replies before lunch today.
