    That's going to take a bit of thought mate. Good question though.

    I’ve consulted the map. Zimbabwe and Namibia?

    I've just zoomed in on those two counties and don't think they touch. Zambia and Botswana do though, just, so I'll go with those?

    You probably have better zooming technology than me.

    Use Google maps and zoom in where Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, and Zimbabwe meet. There's a town named Kazungula on the Zambezi, where there is a tiny border.

    Actually it’s the same on Apple maps, my own urge to beat you to the answer made me fail to zoom sufficiently and take a hasty conclusion. That’ll teach me.

    What do the following have in common? John F Kennedy, Batman, Marco Polo, and John Lennon.

    Well it's true for three of them, so I'm going to say airports named after them.

    That's good enough mate. JFK is in New York, Marco Polo in Venice, John Lennon in Liverpool and Batman is in a large city in Turkey named Batman funnily enough.

    A two-for-one Monopoly board question.

    What's the only property that is south of the river (easy) and what's that name of the man in jail (tough)?

    The Old Kent Road is the only property south of the river. I have heard the name of the jailbird but it escapes me at the moment.

    Old Kent Road is correct. The fella's name (nickname, really) is alliterative.

    I've just realised that my subconscious mind was at work when I typed this. I unwittingly knew his surname.
