I'm not sure what the rules are so this is a little hard. From Bobo's answer do you have to pick four groups of four things with a common thread?

You can have a go at them on this website, monty. Similar theme, and yes, you do have to get four groups from the random 16 clues, only one possible answer

Even with the answers I may not have figured it out
1. Kinds of boot? (There is a Wellington County in Canada).
2. Castles.
3. Scotch (Tobermory spelled wrong).
4. Islands? Off the coasts of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland respectively?

The first are pubs. Otherwise you're right.


The Duke of Cambridge, The Duke of Argyll, The Duke of Devonshire, The Duke of Wellington.

Great boozers, all of them.

I guess there is a Duke of Cornwall pub too - that's a tough one for foreigners. I knew there was Devonshire boot, which equestrians wear, as well as Argyll and Wellington boots - I was just hoping Cornwall had one. They are all counties but not all in the UK.

Oh well - Cheers.

I meant Cornwall. Sorry.

They are all Dukes, of course.
