I thought I'd start a thread onto which folk can post inconsequential but interesting questions.
Here are two to start with:
1. Outside the Wimbledon fortnight, when they seem to cut the grass to a length of 8mm each day, how often does the grass on the main couts get cut - and to what length?
2. The bodies of the 30 Brits murdered in Tunisia are being flown home in RAF transport planes. Why only 7 or 8 bodies at a time? Surely the planes are big enough to carry 30+ bodies in coffins?

Why is there only one monopolies commission?
Are you really that bored mate? :)

Why is it as you get older the days seem to go by like the speed of light, even though one is doing less than when younger?

God only knows... LOL but I suppose that it does not get much chance to grow if they cut the grass each day... Other times I suppose they cut it the same... ::) let's face it... could not play tennis if grass long and you could lose the ball... :D ;D

They are human beings not cargo. And maybe it is to accommodate the families flying home with them. To give them some dignity in their return at the airports and allow them to be transported to their final chapel of rest before each funeral.
They wanted to show respect in that they were people, maybe, and not cargo. Very sad affair and heartbreaking for families seeing their loved ones return in such a manner... :( :'(

I am reminded that we are more mindful of our days and age the older we get... :D

Why is "youth" the preserve of the young? (On whom it is wasted.)

Why are things that are quite obvious to us, not obvious to everybody else? :)

Has to do with experience, I believe.
