Did you know, I didn't...........................


Hey everyone it's Monday, I forgot till now so here are today's facts..................................

A stretched out slinky toy is 87ft long

There is no wind on the moon, so, unless someone disturbs them the footprints left behind should last forever.

Richard the Lionheart aka Richard 1st spent 95% of his reign on foreign shores, it is believed he visited England twice.

Before 1850 golf balls were made of leather and stuffed with feathers

Once in Korea eggs would be sold on bits of string

  1. Hi Jo-Anne ... I didn't know the slinky would stretch to 87 feet ... amazing! I can believe the moon footprints ... I'm sure in your deserts your footprints would stay there ... certainly in the Namib they do for a 100 years ... take care - Hilary

  2. I have an image of those old golf balls splitting with wear and tear, feathers everywhere. Ha.

    I wonder who actually took the time to figure out the length of a slinky. :-P

    Take care; have a good week.

  9. Visiting your blog is educational. I had a slinky when I was a kid and I had no idea it was that long.
