What does it say that the first 'D' country that popped into mind wasn't Denmark, but Djibouti? Definitely couldn't think of a fruit, as I came up with ibex for the animal, and can't say I've seen too many fruits at the market that start with 'x'.

Countries that begin with the letter 'D'...
Denmark
Dhekelia
Djibouti
Dominica
Dominican Republic
The list is shorter than I would've guessed.

Dhekelia isn't really a country either in most senses of the word.

I thought Dhekelia was in Cyprus.I agree that 98% is wide of the mark,but this is still an amusing little diversion.When SWMBO and I tried it we both came up Denmark etc.Does that mean that great minds think alike or that we've been married too long?

If you think of a number between 1 and 10 and multiply by 9 you cannot have a larger number than 99. If you choose between 1 and 9 and then multiply by 9, the result will always be a number who's two digits themself add up to 9 and thus subtracting 5 you get 4 and equating this with a letter of the alphabest you will get D.
As this was obvious, to attempt to "screw it up", I thought of the Dominican Republic, a chameleon and a nectarine
But then this only serves to reinforce what my friend Dave (none of the Daves off this forum) once said in reponse to something I told him. "Toby, you're not normal, are you?"

But it does say not to think...just the first thing that comes into you head which with most people would be Denmark
I saw a similar version of this some time ago that stopped with the second letter of the country being an animal and most folk had a Danish Elephant
Brian FT....you may be normal but no one else here seems to be

Hmm. I came up with the country Denmark, the animal Kudu and the fruit!!! 
Anyone know of a fruit beginning with "U"?
Just Googled. There is one, the Ugniberry - never heard of it
