That blue eyes are not actually blue, they just reflect blue light and appear blue as a result.

Bee's have guardians in the hives who stop d*unk bee's from entering the hive, sometimes to enforce it they rip of their wings and heads in the process.

What have you learnt today?

That's what colour is though, just a reflection of a certain wavelength and absorption of others.

I learned that sensory activities are the way forward in some cases.

Alternative learning helps with developing social skills which lack in certain children.

Today I learned that a coyote can reach speeds of 43 mph, whilst a roadrunner's top speed is 20mph.

So in an actual foot race Wile E Coyote would in all likelihood have caught, and eaten, the Roadrunner!

Went to a thing in London at half term. There was a Google stand where you could try out VR goggles with the idea being that they can help in class as some kids work better with visual aids rather than written.

This worries me though. Can picture children sat in a room with goggles on for hours on end.

I like the hands on approach.

I'm sure in some cases it would be the perfect solution though

I learnt that a list of synonyms is known as a synonymy. Which is almost as fun to say as incorrigible. Oh, and that a Canadian folk band did a lovely cover of The Littlest Hobo theme song.

The term factoid can, in common usage, mean either a false or spurious statement presented as a fact, as well as [1][2] a true, if brief or trivial, item of news or information.

Open new doc.

Copy other info and paste into new doc.

Tweak carefully.

Mutter swear words when the bollocksing shite won't do what you want.

Bash keyboard and mouse.

Mutter more swear words while repeatedly clicking the menu button that. won't. fucking. work.

Slam chair back and stomp off like a deranged person and get a strong coffee.

Never. go. back.

Get piece of paper.

Find pen.

Wonder why anyone would put a inkless pen back in a drawer.

Get new pen from stationery cupboard.

Wonder what it would be called if it was moving.

Return to desk.

Discover that some cuntychops has left you a note on the piece of paper ignoring the perfectly good stack of post it notes.

Decide to go on the Internet for a bit until lunch....
