Scientist was Max Planck. Today's rove started at 7 a.m. courtesy of Ryanair and takes me to a very pretty city on the coast with a population of around 600,000. I just had a quick walk through the centre and was surprised to notice that the city's flag is identical to an England flag as St. George is the patron saint of the city. At one point this port was the largest in mainland Europe and it is still the largest in its country today and the city itself is believed to be over 3,000 years old.
England's first £1 million footballer plied his trade here for 4 years and it is the birthplace of one of history's most famous explorers whose house I visited today. Biggest bonus is that at the supermarket cigarettes are still under £4 a packet so I got 10 cartons in my personal effort to help the pensions crisis. Google tells me that at various times the city has been under the control of the Etruscans, Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Greeks, Romans, Ostrogoths, Byzantines, Spanish, Austro-Hungarians and the French which must be some kind of record. So where am I?
