Ok, ok. Keep the hats.

This is my current chapeau. Though I haven't been wearing it much, due to the heat.



Actually, this looks better in the picture than it does in person. Thank you Instagram.

Hee hee. That looks comfy. I tend to wear floppy brim jungle type hats. So I don't get burnt and have to wear cream. Sigh! Those were the days! It's definitely Autumn now.

And now for something completely different! This one's for you Goofy!

QI (Quite Interesting) is a British comedy panel game television quiz show created and co-produced by John Lloyd, hosted by Stephen Fry, and featuring permanent panelist Alan Davies. Most of the questions are extremely obscure, making it unlikely that the correct answer will be given. To compensate, points are awarded not only for right answers, but also for interesting ones, regardless of whether they are right or even relate to the original question.

I would have loved to show the GIF's but as you can see it would have taken up a LOT of space! I haven't checked, but maybe the first one will take you to all the rest! Very funny and cool GIF's ! http://www.mrwhaite.com/

Are you sure they are educational? I got the impression they didn't care if you got the right or wrong answer! Maybe that is the most educational part about it! VERY FUNNY! Lot's of LAUGHS and GREAT GIF'S. ;-)
BTW JA, what did you learn that you didn't already know? . HONEST! I would love to know!

Most of the facts were new to me. I don't know everything. I know where I have to search if I need answers.
Because they're funny, it's more likely that I'll remember them. (Especially the snakes with the Rhumba, or the hippos and their sunscreen.)

That is SO COOL!! Now, where are the answers! I didn't think they gave them out! I will take a look at their app and see if it,s worth downloading! Thanks for that JA! Sometimes I wonder if there is ANYTHING AT ALL that you DON'T know!!!

The pictures are facts, not questions. You don't have to look for the answers, just at the pictures.

Lol. There's a lot that I don't know.

I forgot to mention that they have their own website as well.

Ah QI, one of my favourite programmes, the second programme in the new series (K) is on tonight and I'll be watching!

The Archangel

 

[J. A.]

I wish we had programmes like this!

 

[Hayles66]

Yes! QI is great. Who do we have this time. Stephen and Alan are my favourites. I watched Shappy Korsandi last night.

Wikipedia tells me she's a comedian. Sounds great. I haven't heard of her before.
