4:
i: What is the Island of Sheep?
ii: Where did the sea cave inspire Op 26?
iii: Where was Magnus Erlendsson executed?
iv: What was David's gift to the Berkshire monks?
v: Where did an amputated digit earn its owner the right to build a monastery?
vi: Where did the great grandson of King John III make his first British landfall?
vii: Where is the unique mutton derived from a diet of Laminaria?
viii: Where was quarantine enforced for 48 years?
ix: To what was Meg's deafness compared?
x: Where was Andie Dale the prefect?

the rules as they have evolved:
a: nice full answers and anecdotes if poss
b: say if googled or no; leave time for non-googlers to play
c: obviously look ahead at future questions if you want
d: don't bring in confirming or dissenting answers from other fora until next set is up and running

semi-spoilers: ii is by mendelssohn; the quarantine in viii was i think from anthrax; the theme is i believe british islands?

yep, no idea except the memory 'oh there was that island that was all anthraxed up for decades' and no idea what it was called.
