Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
Did you weirdo members know that Nelson's ship (HMS Victory) has never been decommissioned and is still an active warship.

Nelson already gave it to them once (and probably twice).

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
Did you know that, when the Victory was built, it was immediately put into storage because it wasn't needed.
This is what you call 'Forward Planning'.
And did you know also that the Victory weighed more than the Titanic, due to all those cannonballs on bored? In fact each cannonball weighed twice as much as the Titanic (because they were quite burdensome).

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
Did you know that most of the tourist attractions in London (such as Tower Bridge, Houses of Parliament, Westminister Abbey, Large Benjamin, St.Paul's Cathderal, etc) were built actual size.
This was done even before they became major tourist attractions.
What foresight.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
I have of also heard that they were built with woodworm already in the timbers, so that it didn’t have of to be installed in later years. Clever.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
Moral: Always manufacture things full size in case they may become tourist attractions in the future.
Anything that is not a tourist attraction should be demolished to manufacture more space.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
Did you bone-brained dumbsters know that only 3 people have ever been beheaded on Blackpool Pleasure Beach's Ghost Train; even though it has been running continuously since 1936.
A fine safety record indeed.

Only 3?
Perhaps we should increase that miserable performance by sending the Cabinet on a holiday there.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
You can't have of a holiday on the Ghost Train. It's not substantial enough, and there are no catering facilities.
