What a cold and wet
morning here in Newie, normally when it's wet I don't go with Leo up
to meet his driver because not good to use the scooter in wet
weather. However, this morning Tasha was busy so I had to go with
him.
This morning not long
after his mum dropped him off he realised he had forgotten his phone
and later he realised he had forgotten his blue hoodie jacket.
Thankfully his mum agreed to take his stuff to the school for him.
Anyway here is this
weeks facts.
The
name “Jeep” is believed to have come from the abbreviation used
in the army for the General Purpose vehicle, G P
The
biggest tree in the world is a Giant Sequoia in California 83metres
tall and 25 metres round.

were developed by Napoleon's surgeon in his Italian campaign of
1796-97.
Actor
Keanu Reeves first name means “cool breeze over the mountains” in
the Hawaiian language
The
Italian flag was designed by Napoleon Bonaparte.
Interesting facts Jo-Anne.

I knew about the giant sequoia and Keanu, but not the rest. You always have interesting facts. :)

It's wet here, too, though not particularly cold. The Italian flag is a mild surprise, I knew the General remade society in a lot of ways, but not flag design too!
