Top 5 Things I Learned This Week

Always carry something to write on and something to write with. The moments of inspiration are always the best, and far too easy to lose.

British Sign Language has 2 different signs for the word Bear. 1 sign for referring to bears in the wild, and another for referring to those in captivity.

Cats have magnetized brain cells, which allow them to navigate, like a built in compass.

Polystone, used for making small statues, is very easy to chip or break, so very fine parts, such as weapons or straps, are sometimes made out of plastic, and attached to the main model. If the workmanship is good, you should only be able to tell the difference by touch.

And my personal favourite: A cow can produce up to the equivalent of 400 litres of methane gas, every single day. That’s a lot of gas!
