About The Country Club

The Country Club exists to divert its members by recording and comparing members’ travels. There are 195 UN Member States/Official Observor, and we are trying to visit them all. Check our progress on the Club Ladder, to the right, or by clicking the link for the List of Countries Visited below that. Curious how we count? Click The Country Club By-Laws link.

Polka-Dot Jersey

Dear Mr. Secretary,

I read Heer.Prof.Dr. van der Zwaan's recent account open mouthed. I am in
awe. My flabber completely gasted. This surely is the moment of significance
in the Gross Corporal Happiness of our humble club of travellers' tales.
Raising the bar on raising a glass. 

Taking into account also other recent posts, and given that a century is now
approaching the fearfully common place, perhaps we are on the cusp of a new
- dare I say elite - sub-category of
'countries-in-which-one-has-enjoyed-cocktails-with-royalty-regents-and-or-re
negades'? The annual polka-dot 'king of the mountains' jersey perhaps, of
our Tour du Monde caravan.

Cheers and to your good health from Beirut, ma'bruk to Bob,

Grant


P.S. My own recent additions I then duly submit as only a footnote: Antigua,
Nevis and Kitts, Lebanon. 


The ballistics of his stratospheric achievements stretch the imagination.
