Living earth is GAIA

See James Lovelock

US Basketball is NBA (not NBL.. I had originally put that too!). Living earth is gaia. South African drink is dip.
Hopefully someone can confirm for me. GL with your entry.

Thanks Hingehead

I don't know much about American sport and took a guess at NBL which I'd heard somewhere; seems it should be NBA???

Thank you too Mrs Green. That came through as I was posting answer to Hingehead. Good luck with your entries too.

Hello again Mrs Green

I ran into Dutchy on another thread and he tells me the African drink is DOP. He gave me his reference so I will pass on the link to you.

I could not manage to cut and paste it, so have copied it exactly as he sent it. Hope it helps. Maybe both are right. This one is an alcoholic drink pronounced dawp.
