One Hundred and One Dalmatians was released exactly 60 years after the death of Queen Victoria. It's now just over 60 years since the release of One Hundred and One Dalmatians.

Ah, I've fucked that up. Unfinished draft in the wrong thread. Still, makes you think.

The population of Britain is larger than the combined populations of Canada and Australia. I know it's because huge swathes of those countries are virtually uninhabitable, but I still would have thought their populations would be larger than they are.
Other top Canadian population fact is that 50% of the population of Canada live below the red line in this map:

(If you can't see the line, it's in the bottom left at 45°42′ N; 72% of Canadians live below the 49th parallel which is often thought of as the border between Canada and the US, and indeed forms most of the western half of the border.)

Yeah but that's because it's made of that waxy shit you get on babybels, utterly impenetrable.

It's like the baddiel and skinner football song rereleases.  "120 years ago since a ball went in a goal ohhh lalala"

People in Yorkshire call casts 'pots'. As in 'my leg was in a pot'.

Paul Calf

People in the midlands do too. 'Pot leg'.

Although I've never heard 'pot arm'.

Sebastian Cobb

stookie was the common one when I was clumping about in a cast in Scotland.

But she did die 120 years ago - 1901

But not exactly 60 years before the release of 101 Dalmations.

steve98

Maybe not exactly, there might be a month or so in it - who knows? (Certainly not the OP who's already admitted he fucked-up on the facts front.)

The population of the Northwest Territories is roughly the same as Merthyr Tydfil.


idunnosomename

no, literally. nearly all c.44 thousand people who live in Merthyr Tydfil also have a house in the frozen tundra and boreal forests of northern Canada.

60 years and 3 days.

And this just so happens to be exactly how long ago Newman and baddiel sang about football coming home, as well


tree lines on his shirt
can we stop him aging
only if we cut into him
and count his rings

footballfootkickgoal
it's coming home
etc

Remarkable. I wonder if the First Nations lads there are ever tempted to burn down these second homes like those Sons of Glyndŵr scamps used to do.

She's been stuffed by an expert taxidermist and is enjoying a second career as Margaret Beckett.

I'm now annoyed though.

How can we live in a world where Henry vacuum cleaners are up there with your dad's ringpiece on mainstream television channels in primetime slots yet there's no Wellipets made in adult sizes?

I'll put you in touch with my cordwainer. He's made me a pair of Crocs out of a pair of crocs - they were giving me a load of lip so I turned them into shoes. The arseholes are the apertures, so I belt them both up the arse with my feet most days of the week. He's also done me slippers out of whelks and some snow lion espadrilles.

and you wear all those items at once.

Six shoes, two feet, two hands, a penis and some lovely balls. Can you blame me?

Brilliant word

Can also be used as a verb: AH'LL FUCKIN' STOOKIE YOU! (Hit you over the head with my stookie)
