Did you know that the font Verdana was created by a British dude and it's suppose to be the most widely used font on the Internet? It's on that 'Vote a BBC British Icon' or something along those lines, which you can find on their website.
Did you know that, "Just because the word 'Finance' is in the title of a textbook, the publishers believe they can slap a 40+quid pricetag on it" - from my finance lecturer. I kid you not...I guess you could say they are pretty thick but still, c'mon. BTW I meant the book not the publishers.
*sigh* I'm outta interesting 'did you know's'.
Oh yeah, with reference to the first 'did you know', Tomb Raider/Lara Croft made it to the top 10 icons that's up for votes. Amazing. Along with Grand Theft Auto.
How much more British can you get?
On a side note, the first settlers to have landed on this land mass, i.e. UK, must have arrived on a nice sunny day.
