I would have sat in the leather chair and argued my point until Magnus gave in and awarded me my point. It's to do with Australasia not being counted as a continent when the modern games were founded in 1896. Although most people now count Antartica as a continent, thus making seven.

You mean you would have bullied him into submission. Read it again muppet, I said Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe
I would argue that the answer I alluded too was correct Mrs Knight. I expect you to verify the fact with the Olympic Committee and send me lots of Ackers in compensation.
