A QI Wednesday

Wednesday 1 Feb 2012 - Today I went to a funeral for my friend's mother, at Maroochydore. It was a lovely service, with poetry, lots of photos and her favourite songs, which was a very nice, personal touch. Kim and her family did so well to organise such a wonderful tribute to their Mum.

Tonight I am watching QI, short for Quite Interesting, on the ABC. I like Stephen Fry, the host, and Alan Davies, the one regular, and they always have 3 other QI guests, and I always find out something new and interesting.

Tonight for instance: The country where you are most likely to see a tornado, is the UK, which has over 100 per year - not the USA as I would have thought. Also, if in a falling elevator, the best thing to do is lie on top of a fat person - who will cushion the impact when it hits the bottom... Fascinating stuff.
