Hmmm. that might be interesting....
On a similar subject, only a few days ago, when I was on holiday in Italy,
I met a young guy from Argentina who gave me a totally
other idea of the Falklands war (aka First Malvinas Operation,
the war between Britain and Argentina in 1982 over a few small islands
before the Argentine Coast) than what I remember from the newsmedia then.
BTW the Argentine capital Buenos Aires is full of memorials of the
Falklands war!
LBC content: One of the most popular car models you see there
(= Buenos Aires, at least when I was there, in 1992) is
BRITISH! (Hillman=Sunbeam Avenger, locally made, now under
the name Volkswagen 1500 Duna; can you imagine that?)
