Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
In the "inmates are running the country" file...
A nine-year-old girl faces a trial for causing an accident after she was knocked over by a car on a zebra crossing. The youngster, not named for legal reasons, from Schaffhausen in Switzerland was slightly injured after she was hit by the car while crossing the road with her mum and younger sister. The car driver claims the young girl ran out from behind a bus and straight into his vehicle, and was therefore a danger to him and other motorists. She is now being hauled up in front of the Schaffhausen youth court where she could face a fine. |

The wombat is the only animal to have an actual bone in his dinkle.
The current 'blade was designed to look like it has a human face which is why it resembles the fawn from Pan's Labyrinth. Apparently the human face registers in road users minds more than a headlight and changes road users perception of speed. |

Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
I wonder what the scrap value of all the paperclips in my office building would be?

Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
Although Northern Ireland is part of Great Britain, due to EU madness, the EU identifier on Northern Irish number plates is "NI" not "GB". The reason for this is that they didn't want to discriminate against the Irish.
