    Unplanned bonus chat about:

    Lo: Pippi Långstrump (Pippi Longstocking) by Astrid Lindgren (Sweden).

    Tintin by Hergé (Belgium).

    Ps: the “twelve things to do of Astérix” is actually called “the Twelve Tasks of Astérix” and the task where they have to get a permit (A38) is called "The Place that sends you mad"
