I once went out with a Welsh girl who had 36DDs.
She finished with me because I couldn't pronounce her name....

I went out with a girl from Cardiff once who said she wouldn't sleep with me unless I could speak Welsh. I told her to Llay down and Prestatyn.

Joining two bolts with one nut packed with caps could be great fun, especially if you mastered the art of tightening it just enough so they fly apart on impact.

I certainly remember them, and there was another type of 'cap gun' ammunition that were tiny red cups with powder in the middle, they were specific to toy revolvers I think and came in rings of six. Neither however, were anywhere near as good as breaking the heads off half a dozen matches, putting them down on the kerbstone and belting them with a hammer! Now that made a bang.

Which reminded me of an 'incident' in the metalwork room at school a long time ago. Two of the class had discovered, via the geography class, that diamonds were made by carbon being placed under extremely high pressure. They decided that this could easily be transferred to the school room by

1. joining 2 bolts with one nut packed with caster sugar grains

2. tighten the apparatus with spanners / vice

3. heat the metal using the gas blowtorch in the metalwork room

The result, fortunately, was that, after exploding one of the bolts embedded itself in the ceiling tiles, the other in the blowtorch table and there were no injuries.

There were no diamonds created.

At least they were thinking
and conducting experiments

OK - not thinking using actual facts and not considering actual possible consequences etc

but the Scientific Method is close (ish)

after all the history of Science is full of less sensible and safe things

Swan Vesta match heads were good for this too. 💥

The wife asked if I would stop singing Wonder Wall.
I said maybe.
