I didn't know that! Tell us something interesting!

Do not, under any circumstances, eat Polar Bear liver. They store so much vitamin D in it it will kill you within 20 minutes.

I looked this up as I met four nuns walking in the Valley of the Rocks yesterday. They were very friendly and were all wearing habits, wimples, walking boots and cagoules. Not something I've seen before!!

Did you know that a flock of goldfinches (a flock? I've only ever seen five!) is called a Charm?

Me too Callistemon better safe than sorry and it has been known to keep Mr. S. at bay if he hasn't eaten any too.

When people thought there was a vampire near by, they would dig up the dead to see if they were in their coffins. Believing that the deceased's hair and nails had continue to grow, increased their belief that they were the un dead.

Sorry for the gruesome post but it was the only thing I could think of and yes, I also tried to hum while pinching my nose.

Just wait until they hear what I've got to say about the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy then!

Robert Burns was the first person to feature on Coca Cola bottles in 2009, in celebration of the 250th anniversary of his birth.

It was very traumatic, tanith!
She had her toddler with her and got a biscuit out for him and the apes were there in a flash, in her bag, we were shouting "throw the packet of biscuits away" but she didn't speak English and our German was somewhat limited.

I was ready to grab the toddler but she got it eventually!

There's a black mark on the clock at Horse Guards Parade at the number 2. King Charles I was executed at 2.00pm, hence the black mark.
