Did you know No:16



Well I hope everyone is having or had a good weekend as I can say I did. This morning I went to my aqua aerobics and then to the shops to get another packet of Golden Crumpets has to be Golden Crumpets no other brand are as nice, just saying.


Anyway here is this weeks did you know facts.

During WW11 it cost the Allies about £150,000 to kill each enemy soldier

Around 75% of people who play the radio or other music in the car sing along to the music.

A stack of £1 notes stacked one mile high would be worth about £14 million

All the people on earth weigh about 420 million tons

There are around 25,000 people in the world age at least 100 years old

    1. I would like to live to be 100 but only if I was still with it and had control over my bodily functions

  4. I was just reading about the Russian lady who's supposed to be like 129. She said, "I've never known a happy day." I don't know how some of the world's people cope. I truly believe the reason God put me in the USA is that I'd have never survived most other places or times...
