The most popular cocktail in the falkland islands is a Guam, its half Guinness and half Salad Cream.

The morse code for the letter J has the same aural signature as the sound made by a bat when it detects a Ghost Moth (Hepialus humuli).
The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    The original opening lyrics to the Beatles song Get Back were "Forty Pakistanis living in a council flat".

    It was meant as a parody on the anti immigration headlines in many of the papers at the time, but was changed by the band in case it was perceived to be a racist sentiment.

    In a rugby union scrum only the no.8 is allowed to pick up the ball. (I found out whilst
    watching the U21 world cup taking place in Argentina which was recently on Sky Sports).
