Phew, well at least that's 1 proven to be true, just another 74 to be scrutinised to the nth degree.

nb; I understand each and every one of them but, unless I'm missing something,
there's two in there that contradict each other. :lol:

Did you know...

The other mans grass is always greener.

The sun shines brighter on the other side.

Some are happy. Some are not.

Just be thankful for what you've got.

The distance between your fingertips when you stretch your arms out straight to the side is equal to your height.

James Cagney never said the lines 'You dirty rat'

A Japanese man was in the first city to be hit by the very first atomic bomb dropped during WW2. He survived the explosion and decided he would go home. Soon after he got home the second atomic bomb was dropped on his city. He survived yet again.

(waiting to be shot down on all items).

Willie, I have gone through your list twice, and can find no errors. Well done. :?

Did you know that the actor, David Tomlinson ( who played Mr Banks in Mary Poppins and also Professor Browne in Bedknobs and Broomsticks) found out one day, whilst travelling on a bus, and saw through the window his father in another house with another family, his second family. His father used to tell David's family that he was staying at his club at the weekends, when he was really' living with his other family' :shock:

RRB (what a bounder) :thumbdown:
 
Did you know a noisy helicopter keeps flying over head and around my house around the back, it's still there right now.

Hey, I've got a noisy/nosy helicopter too! Are we neighbours?

- think mine might be fishing people out of the estuary/ looking for illegal bass fishermen though.

You can position 10 defenders of a square castle so that on every side there will be 5 men.

I wonder...
Hornplayer might be able to put me straight here. A friend of mine taught himself to play the didgereedoo (where's a spell checker when you need one!) He also taught himself to breath in through his nose whilst continually blowing through his mouth, this allows him to play a continuous note. I believe it's called circular breathing. Can people who do circular breathing do what Netty70 said can't be done?

Ooo, Ooo, I know another one.
Did you know I can make the same sound as one of those warbling telephones from the 70s, the Trim Phone? I used to hide on the stairs at home and make the sound and when someone came to answer I would stop. They would wander off and I would start again! Horrid child.
