Did you know that Chopin couldn't play the Piano.
He could only play the Bucket Horn.
OTOH (on the other hand) Beethoven could play both the Piano and the Sausage Horn (although not at the same time).

Did some members know that British ammunitions were deliberately drilled with the wrong size holes, so killing French farmers 100 years after firing, rather than Germans just after firing.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
The designers must have of envisaged the UK leaving the EU, thus causing a modern-day rift between the English and the French. It's a portion harsh to kill their farmers though...

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
Did you daft members know that there was a village in Buckinghamshire that completely disappeared in 1947?
One day it was there, and the next day it was gone. It even disappeared from all the maps, just as if it was never there.
Where it used to be there is now just empty fields (although the fields have of been built on since).
Nobody knows what hapened to the village, or the people who lived there.

It returns once a year - for one night. But no one sees it because it's dark.
A portion like Brigadoon.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
No, that's once every hundred years. I read about it in a song.
This one might return every hundred years for all we know.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
And there was a village in Rutland that also disappeared completely in the 1970s. It is now a large lake called Rutland Water.
It was later discovered that it had been moved to Yorkshire, and none of the inhabitants were aware of the juxtapose until they came out of church the next morning and couldn't find their way to the pub.

I did say "A portion like Brigadoon". I was aware of the difference when I wrote it.

Re: Unbelievable luxury facts (and fictions)
I am very aware of the fact that Rutland (and Yorkshire) people like their pub-going. Thank you for confirming it.Sir William wrote: ↑Sat Aug 14, 2021 2:06 pmAnd there was a village in Rutland that also disappeared completely in the 1970s. It is now a large lake called Rutland Water.

I'm sure that it's led to many Minis being damaged due to RTCs over the years.
But why did they spend all night in the Church? Some sort of Satanic activity going on there? I think we should be told...

Rigid Torsion Control has been discontinued in Rutland as a direct result of Bre*xit.
