I watched a few episodes but it didn't really grip me.

I didn't mention another true or false question the curate asked us on the previous Sunday. She said that it was true that the earth would be knocked off its axis if everyone in China jumped off their chairs at the same time. It may be true that the energy created by this would fractionally move the axis in one direction, but the energy spent in climbing on the chairs in the first place would have moved the axis by the same amount in the opposite direction. So the overall effect is nothing.

The internet. She must have selected her questions from one site but didn't check to see what other sites had to say If you do a Google search you will find that there are sites which "prove" that the Earth is flat

If everyone in the world jumped up and landed at exactly the same time it would make not a scrap of difference  No earthquakes. No movement of the Earth's axis. in fact no difference whatsoever

Nooooo, i'm confused as it is El 

Then there's Discworld which is a disc resting on the back of 4 gigantic elephants which stand on an enormous turtle as it slowly swims through space.

And in those books the sea flows over the edge of the world, so it definitely must be true

 

I wonder what this owl calls his sweetheart?

I just popped out to the rubbish bin and very cool out there now.

I've taken the cushions off my swing and packed them away. I don't think I'm going to need them for at least a week - if at all!
