"AND THE CAPITAL OF ZAMBIA IS..?"

I felt really ill today, so I had to leave work early.

When I got in, Mya asked if I had broken up early for half term (if only). She had her face painted at school today with the Zambia flag. Her class is learning about Zambia and she tells me that they are raising funds for a school there as well. I asked her what was the capital of Zambia called - but she told me that she couldn't remember.

I confidently told her it was Luanda.

But then I conceded that I just might be wrong, so we should do some internet research. You can imagine my horror when we found out that LUSAKA is the capital...

I'm blaming my wrong answer on the fact that I was feverish, near death and very, very tired.
