A-Z Challenge 2025 - L is for Lollygagging

Well it seems there are only so many words for nonsense but there are quite a few for idling of which lollygagging is one.  I think it's quite fair to say I'm probably as good at lollygagging as I am at waffling.  The two combine quite well really.  

I can also be quite good at falling down rabbit holes while on my laptop.  It occurred to me today that I had visited Hong Kong on our trip to Australia yet Hong Kong doesn't feature on the list of countries I'm working on.  Of course that's because it's now reverted to China so that means, technically, I've visited China. In theory I should go back to my C post and amend it.  But that would mean amending all the stats on subsequent post too.  Well, despite my love of lollygagging I'm trying to get ahead on my posts so I'm just going to correct the stats going forward.  Especially as I've already gone back over my posts because the link to the list of countries was incorrect.  Apologies to anyone who discovered that before I did.

Right here are the L countries:

Although I don't officially have a theme I wanted something to link my posts so I thought I'd see how many countries in the World I've visited or might visit.

• Laos
• Latvia
• Lebanon
• Lesotho
• Liberia
• Libya
• Liechtenstein
• Lithuania
• Luxembourg

I have passed through Luxembourg - we drove through it on our trip to Germany but I'm not sure if we even stopped - it's a very small country! I'm counting it though.

Of the others Liechtenstein, Latvia and Lithuania might be possible destinations but the others are highly doubtful.

That's 11 out of 197 countries then. (Including China - see above!)

And 12 out of 26 letters done.
