Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
One hundred years ago today, the German Navy bombarded Scarborough, Whitby and Hartlepool.
Contrary to rumour, I wasn't there, neither did I take the picture.The wife of the owner of this shop in Prospect road was killed and my aunt, who lived in the same street received a relatively minor injury.

Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
The term "Pot hole" comes from the fact that 18th-century potters routinely dug clay right out of the roads.

Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
Selfridges in London has the world’s largest women’s shoe department.
It stocks more than 100,000 shoes at any given time and sells more than 7,000 pairs per week. (I'm glad my wife doesn't shop in London)
