You get more pizza in one 18" pizza than you do in two 12" pizzas.

Although when my mrs is talking about pizza she seems to think they’re measured by how many slices it’s cut into

Convinced she thinks she’s eating more if she eats 2 out of 8 slices from a 10” than she would be if she ate 1 out of 4 from a 16”.

According to Wiki the Victoria line as used by passengers is entirely underground, but a branch from Seven Sisters to a depot isn't underground.

I asked the wife if she wanted her pizza cut into 6 or 8 pieces, she said 6 as she couldn't eat 8.

I've been in Tenerife the past week and thought us Scots were getting a rather warm welcoming embrace.

Beside the EU flag and the Spanish flag all over the island there was the Saltire flying proudly along side.

Turns out Tenerife and Scotland share the same Patron Saint and flag.

They're still very welcoming 😀

In Australia there was a popular brand of matches called “Red Heads”. Entrepreneur Dick Smith wanted a part of that market and released “Dick Head matches” which went on to be very popular.

When i sat my licensee test, i'm sure they said you could serve beer or porter to 5 year olds in a pub, as long as they were eating?

I've never seen it put to the test.
