Did you know that 'twelve plus one' and 'eleven plus two' both equal thirteen? Yes? Well did you know that both statements also equal thirteen letters - in equal amount?

I'd heard that. Never tried it though. Can see why it would work.

When I first started, I used to take a jiff lemon squeezy thing on stage with me. - Its really hard to play with a dry mouth. It didn't take long for my saliva glands to catch up but it was really useful for a time. :)

Having said that, I do have one tuba pupil who sits there with spit literally running off his chin while he's playing. It took me a couple of years to be able to look directly at him when he plays!

Selfish people, arseholes who think they know it all, ignoramuses, chavs and people with no manners. People who play music on the bus or train full blast on their phones.
An elephant cannot jump and is the only mammal besides humans to have four 'forward facing knees'.

I think the dolphin is the only mammal bedides humans for self gratification.

A dog does not recognise it's own reflection.

Miners used to take budgies into mineshafts to tesy for gas before the davy lamp.

This is memory-based, I've forgotten more than I can remember.

It's impossible to lick your own elbow.













You've just tried to. :)


Oh fables and **** facts, fun. So much better for not googling.


How many anims did moses take aboard the ark....?









None it was noah!





Why did the sun blush?

Because the sea-weed.




Poor poor poor. I wish there were a dirty joke forum.

Hi Mart lots of great info, but......... an Elephant has 2 knees at the back and 2 elbows/wrists in the front. It was on QI at some point :)

The hollow at the back of our knees is called hough

Did you know that humans are the only species that consumes the milk of a different species? And that, apparently, in Japan, milk is referred to as cow juice? - feel free to call me on that one, I'm off to eat a piece of cheese! ;)

Lol ! You sound so disappointed. I'm not sure to be honest. He seems very camp but I believe he's had girlfriend ? I'm pretty sure however that Rupert Bear is gay as no straight bear would wear that outfit !
