No John, sorry, nice list though. Remember when I said before between you and Dave that one of you was close, well it wasn't Dave because he was going along the Bruce Springsteen line - my last clue being I'm not human.  So it has to be you who was on the right track but not quite there Smile

Yes Ken you have it, well done Smile

The 3 I mentioned that are not included are The Vatican Hill, The Pincian Hill and the Janiculum.

The 2 most historically most famous are The Palatine & The Aventine, these being the hills settled by Romulus & Remus. Romulus eventually killed his brother leading to the founding of Rome in 753BC - so legend has it.

Over to you Smile
