A very old bycicle

Cycling is the perfect form of transport - it's free and it doesn't pollute. Just ask Englishman Oscar Hopkins. Mr Hopkins bought a second-hand bicycle in 1956... and has done 160,000 km with it. "They certainly don't make bikes like that any more, he says".

Boiled eggs

How many minutes do you boil an egg to get a soft yolk?

The answer is three minutes, but 50% of Bristish teenagers do not know this. So special eggs have been created. The eggs have a logo in invisible ink. The ink becomes black when the egg is ready!!!^^
