No, not the lady married to Uncle Podal, but points on opposite sides of the globe. Always found them interesting - the classic line about digging down until you come out in China, for example. Funny thing is, that the only place in British control where you could do that is Port Stanley in the Falklands. Dig through the centre of the Earth from the UK and you come out in the Southern Ocean a few hundred miles south of New Zealand.

"When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die! You don't know who's children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the very beginning: SIT DOWN AND TALK!"
