Not seen one of these for a while so thought it would be fun to start one.

I just randomly looked up the krypton factor & Gordon burns and learned that he and Ed sheeran are 2nd cousins!

What did you learn recently that surprised or even shocked you?

They say you learn something new every day, and what I learned today was that Kinder Surprise eggs are illegal in America. Apparently attempting to smuggle Kinder Eggs into the USA can get you a fine between $300 to $2,500 per egg. Although, according to Wikipedia, the eggs "remain popular on the black market".

And yet you can legally own a gun in America 🤨
