I took my Guide World Friendship Badge in July 1981. One of the sections required you to plan a tour to assorted Commonwealth countries. The only place that fell into a particular category was the Falklands. After much searching for information, Dad managed to bring home a photocopy of the entry from the Encyclopedia Britannica at college. It was a short entry, including a map of the islands and a few details on their islands products and location. The examiner seemed rather stunned that I'd found any information at all about this out of the way place.
Nine months or so later, everyone knew where the Falklands were!
