    Fake Facts you will think are true!

    OK, its hot so before we all melt, share your nonsense facts. You know the ones that special friend will easily believe are true!!

    Starting the ball rolling here:

    By technical scientific definition, a snake’s body is in fact a limb

    Also

    There are more submarines in lakes right now than there are in the oceans

    So, let's hear them

    More people speak Klingon than Welsh - although that may be true😂

    It's a well known fact the DAF 55 was original made out of daffodils hence the name. It also has better handling (in the right hands of course) than most modern day sports cars.....true fact.

    Eating celery burns more calories than the calorific energy it provides when ingested.

    Area 51 is actually the film set of the 1969 summer blockbuster “First Man on the Moon”

    Because of global warming, the world's seasons have slightly shifted, by approximately one moon cycle. So in 2025 we are having a "leap-month" to reset things. To keep things simple, we are having two Decembers.

    (I genuinely don't know what depths of my mind this came from but I somehow convinced a couple of younger members of staff that it was true. One's initial response was "December? That's going to be expensive." Idiot. Of course we'll be paid twice.)

    The Hebrew/Jewish calendar, which is lunar rather than solar, adds a leap month (Adar Sheni) every 2 or 3 years...

    And now back to the subject of this thread:

    The Patek Nautilus is an attractive watch.

    Any fad diet ever invented helps you lose weight because of ketosis/sped up metabolism/pseudo science; when actually anything resulting in a caloric deficit will illicit weight loss.
