BigBo10 Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 It properly melted my mind when I found out that fizzy drinks don't get called 'juice' outside of Scotland.I’ve never heard them called juice in Scotland either. Juice is diluting drinks. Fizzy drinks are ginger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Man Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 The master version of the kilogram is a platinum ingot which is locked in a vault in Paris. I'll be surprised if I'm not beating off a queue of ladies with a shitty stick at the next party I'm at now that I have that piece of information in my armoury. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of that story (allegedly true) of the night when Rangers FC were on a night out in Glasgow after a cup win during the 90s. They were having a meal and just about to start on their first course, when the waiter asked Barry Ferguson if he would like some ginger to go with his melon. Naaw, says Bazza...... I think the boss is gonna get us some wine.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ah-dee Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Your nose is actually in pretty much full view of your eyes, however because your brain sees it as unimportant and always there it fools your eyes in to ignoring that it's actually there. im sure this has been a continuing thing through evolution. the nose was originally the main sensory organ, much like a dog etc, so it was unnecessary to see it. sure i read that somewhere or perhaps talking pish! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
