Why is it when you see shoes or gloves on the ground when you are out and about, you only ever see one of the pair.

Who supplies gas and electric, to the likes of NPower or Scottish Power?

Just wondering if they shop around for the best deals.

They're all conmen, if you want a good deal stick your microwave into the national grid. Wink

This was on the radio the other day and it got me thinking!

Not sure there was a definitive answer, but does your device get heavier when you download something on to it?

No

The A1 (Western Bypass).
Historically, the southbound carriageway always struggled between the Metrocentre and Coal lhouse, clearing as you passed the angel/Bowes Incline - where the road becomes wider and ultimately faster (the 50mph limit is reduced there).

However, since the widening of the traditionally slower section, traffic is now coming to a standstill on the faster, motorway section.

Has me baffled as there is no logical reason for it to slow down and there appears to be no more traffic joining at the coalhouse than previous.

There's been a stat kicking around over the last week regarding the last 5 fixtures between Forest and Derby.
The stat said something about the number of managers the clubs have had and how each of the last 5 fixtures between the two clubs, featured a different managerial match up.
Yesterday, it was Warburton and Rowett. Earlier in the season, a French fella and McClaren.

It got me thinking about the Tyne & Wear derby and the managerial match-ups over the last few years.
Although it doesnt hit the same standard as it has done in the East Midlands, the managerial turnover up here, is pretty high. However, my mind has hit a blank and I can't work out all of the managerial duels over the last few years.

Benitez - Moyes.
Moyes - McClaren.
Allardyce - Carver.
Pardew - Allardyce (or big Dick?).
Pardew - Big Dick.
Poyet - Pardew.
Pardew - Di Canio.

Then my mind hits a blank. I can't remember the gaffers on Wearside. Was it O'Neill? Bruce? Keane?

The M6/A74.

Many roads cross the border between England and Scotland. None of them change their number as they cross the border.
Apart from the M6/A74.

Any ideas?

It's about as clear as the A63/M62 situation.

Forgot about that one.
There's also the M62/M60/M62 section a few miles west too.

This came up on The Dull Men's Club recently.

It never crossed my mind and remains one of lifes little mysteries.
