If the world is round, how come it's got four corners, and where are they?

From Revelations 7 -1;

And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

This and other citions are popularly thought to be the four compass points.

just discovered that the tread that had the "odd one out" was the Melksham Quiz, maybe someone else on the forum did it and could furnish us with the answer, or know of a contact.

It was 60 -all are motorways but there is no M60.
Hope this helps you.

Sorry, Joker, but there is an M60 Motorway. It is an orbital motorway encircling Manchester.

Re the 'odd one out' quiz, I seem to remember the series as 40 50 60 70 80 90, because I offered the (probably wrong) answer 40, as it was the only decade when Cliff Richard did not have a hit record. Would be interesting to find out the answer.
Another thought, did anyone ever solve the film TOFT starring JG?

Sorry folks re motorways. Only taken months for my error to be exposed.
I will not tell you all what my occupation is,for fear of bringing complete ridicule on my head!
