Interesting and tough quiz. Typo: it's Yverdon-les-Bains, not Yvedron.

Corrected, thanks! And yes, X and Y are probably the toughest of all the quizzes in this series. They're just not very popular letters. I guess!

I've been to Ystad. They have an annual festival in which a field is marked out into squares and people lay bets on the different squares. A herd of cows is then let into the field and the winner is the man who bet on the square that is the first to receive a cowpat. Entertainment in rural Sweden at its best!

Never heard of that, I guess you learn something new every day (or night at the moment)! It does sound quite interesting and fun!

Thanks for the info!
