Can be mundane, geeky, surreal but hey, I'll see how long it lasts.

Today I learned that Angela Lansbury's (Jessica Fletcher in Murder She Wrote) Grandfather was leader of the Labour Party.

Angela Lansbury has one of the scariest lines in any film I've seen - in the original version of The Manchurian Candidate - when she says "Raymond, why don't you pass the time by playing a little solitaire?" Sorry for the spoiler if you've not seen it. One of my all time top three movies.

Today I learned how long it takes to put up a yurt: https://aeon.co/videos/mongolian-nomads-building-a-traditional-yurt-is-a-masterclass-in-cooperation

Today I learned who enjoys sex more.

If you have an itch in your ear and you push your finger in an out to resolve, what feels better after: you finger or your ear?

BBC says 'outside the UK'
I've learned that promises mean very little. At least 50% of the time, people don't follow through. So take a 'promise' as a 'maybe' and you won't be disappointed.
