Fun facts for a Friday!

You don't have to buy chappies today, here is a couple of interesting did-you-knows:

  • Tomorrow is National wiggle your toes day AND Work like a dog Day (hey, what can we say, we'll try our best on a Saturday).  Pretend you're five years old again and get wiggling!  It can be serious fun if you get a few pals to wiggle along.
  • Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite.
  • South Africa has the longest wine route in the world.
  • There are more chickens than people in the world.
  • Almonds are a member of the peach family.
  • There are only four words in the English language which end in “dous”: tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
  • Honey is the only natural food that never goes off.
  • The oldest word in English is 'town'.
  • A cockroach can live several weeks without a head.
  • The Lost City Resort Hotel at Sun City is the largest theme resort hotel in the world.
It's always good to expand our general knowledge, and it doesn't always have to be about serious stuff.  Please share your facts on the lighter side of life.

P.S.  I'll be away for two weeks, chat again by the end of August.

Happy Women's Month!
