Cloud seeding, putting chemicals into clouds to create rain was apparently used in the 1976 drought.

Don't think it'll be used this summer

NBS has bought the rights to develop and screen a US version of the Eurovision Song Contest.

Apparently all 50 states will compete against each other.

You may have thought Sir Paul McCartney was the richest music millionaire.

Apparently not.

That honour goes to Clive Calder.

It was him who discovered Britney Spears

All this is true.

I go to an old folks daycare every morning and they tell us these true facts to keep our brain cells ticking over

We have to remember the facts the next day or our meals on wheels get cancelled for a week

Anybody thinking of getting PVC windows/doors.

May I strongly recommend Royal Windows in Swords.

They recently did a great job putting in new PVC windows for me.

Contact Garth on 0877912826  and mention my name.

That means mosr street advertising is banned, as is tobacco and plastic bags.

Metal detector enthusiasts are called "dectorists".

There are apparently 30,000 of these people on the go in GB.
