HIS name means all-compassionate...
How many towns with saint's names are there 20km north of Olbia? BTW La Maddalena is on the La Maddalena Archipelago off Sardinia and 40km away from Olbia. keep trying...I can always give it to the next person who makes it within 10 km of the town

Ok if no-one says anything for a while, then I will automatically hand the torch to Tully for the closest guess (Olbia). It's good enough for me.
