What bit of random knowledge do you know?

Mine is I can remember the barcode for a Cadbury crème egg. I worked in a co-op over twenty years ago and they often didn’t scan so you had to put the number in and I can still remember it.

No, not for all organs, anyway. Just kidneys as far as I know.

That's astonishing! Thanks.

Ah - I see it's not the case for all organs...

60 mph is 88 feet per second.
Therefore a 15 mph cyclist will move at 22 ft per sec. That is the length of one and a half cars.

And the rear legs are based on a dog, not a lion. If you just look again you'll see they're too small and slim for the rest of the body, lions have huge powerful hindquarters.

Turner and Jane Austen were born in the same year.

Lichtenstein is ( or was when I leaned the fact) the world’s biggest exporter of false teeth.

Yep, my dad has 3 kidneys. He had a transplant but apparently there was no point in removing the ones that are still working (even if not very efficiently).

The more easterly end of the Panama Canal is in the Pacific Ocean

There is only one country between Norway and North Korea

Wombats have cubed shape poos

September 19th is talk like a pirate day.

Mnemonic for turning lids, screws etc 'Left for loose, right for tight'

Jewish refugees from Germany and Austria were treated as enemy aliens and interned during WW2. So were Italians, even if they'd lived here for many years. Japanese were treated similarly in USA.

Never Eat Cake Eat Salmon Sandwiches and Remain Young.

Zippy from Rainbow was supposed to be a common or garden frog but someone ordered the wrong coloured fabric to cover the puppet - orange instead of green. And they couldn’t afford to buy more fabric. If people asked what he was supposed to be then the answers given were invariably that he was an alien (looked like a Smash Martian) or was loosely affiliated to Dundee United - bollocks, he was a wrong-coloured frog.

Our landline number from when I was growing up and our VW beetle reg number.

Mine is loosey leftie, righty tighty.

Indeed. Maybe the sign was too big and they had to cut a Johnson off (ouchies!! 😆)

Peanuts are not nuts. They are tubers.

Yes - this one's weird because nut allergies can cover all nuts but it seems to be mainly peanuts!

No it is one of two, the other is ice cream

Everyone is born with a 'hole in the heart'. Before babies are born their lungs are not inflated so don't need as much blood so it goes back in to the circulation system.

A flap called the 'foraman ovale' and closes the hole shortly after birth.

When you 'hear' your baby's 'heart' on an ultrasound you are actually listening to the doppler shift.

Some languages can be red with different alphabets. Spoken Hindi and Urdu are very similar spoken languages but if you see them written down.

Turkish used to be written using Arabic script but changed to a roman alphabet in the 1920s.

If I didn't have all this junk in my brain maybe I could get more done.

Legumes. They grow in pods, if you buy them in the shell that's what you are buying.

Is that one person per hour or day or week or month or year? (The length of time is important.) And why would you have a dishwasher in the middle of a kitchen?

Your one’s better! 😂
