TheIndependent today has listed a 10 “must see” ancient sites around the Med:
1. Delphi
2. Mycenae
3. Knossos
4. Troy
5. Ephesus
6. Leptis Magna
7. Carthage
8. Algeria
9. Pont du Gard (France)
10. Agrigento (Sicily)

I’ve put in italics the ones I haven’t seen – a trip to Libya has been on my “must do one day” list for some time.

It is a slightly odd list, perhaps slanted by the travel agents to hand in the office, Algeria??, and where is Pompei and Herculaneum? So I reckon I’ll give myself 50 per cent – half-way there.

I won’t call it a meme, but if you want to pick it up you’re welcome…
