I would post this in Science, but then nobody would see it.

Here's a fact.

I read this, and tried it ... and it's true ...

Very hot water freezes into ice faster than cold water!

Try this.

Boil a kettle.

Fill an ice tray with hot, boiled water.

Fill another ice tray with cold water.

Put them in the freezer.

Although the cold water had a ''head start'', the hot water turns into ice FIRST !!

Why ???????

This is not a fluke. It works every time.

the should make freezers with glass doors then you could watch the water freeze.
Reported for 2 reasons.

1: Wrong section.

2: Telling us how to suck eggs!

Hi pasta. xx
Hang on...................

You're up early, pasta. I've never seen you on at this time.
JJ-would you not be better employed studying horses for today
Question Author
Horses?

1. I don't "study" horses, because I don't know enough about racing. I just pick jolly names.

2. The Seagulls are playing today, so that's where my money is going. (and no, I'm not going to watch ... I have to shop + pack for Monday).



(all spirits include a mixer of your choice)

Primary School, MWB ?

That was a good school.

You have people coming round ... you forgot to make ice.

You need ice, today.

Fast ice is a good life-skill.

All schools should teach that.

All I learned was how to "accidentally" catch someone with a lacrosse stick whilst making it look as if you were making a pass ... but then, that's also come in useful from time to time, LOL.

Lacrosse, darlink!

Jeez, all we could play was netball. I hate it to this day.

Sometimes, even though we weren't allowed to, we played the fool.
You have people coming round ... you forgot to make ice.

well my freezer would have to forget too because it's got one of those ice maker thingies on it.
Question Author
Aww, MWB ...

Netball is a FAB game ...

... and a lot more skillful than basketball.

I can't wait for the new Netball SuperLeague season to start.

As usual, I will post my Netball betting tips.
