Another Friday means more plump facts being plucked from the great old legendary fact bearing tree by fact farming duo, Gill Smith and Pete Moor.

They then share the freshly picked, perfectly ripe facts with you, the crisp fact enthusiasts, to satisfy your latest fact cravings.

In other words, here are more facts from Gill and Pete.

THIS WEEK! :-

Gill tells us that this year, the trees are over-producing when it comes to acorns but for good reason. She also tells us of the temporary changes to the rules of golf when playing during the second world war. Just standard things like how many penalty strokes you get if you take cover from bombs and gunfire. We think this may have been someone having a little joke to lighten the mood in 1940. Finally she tells us of how evolution failed the Myanmar Sunbnosed Monkey and how they are basically allergic to rain... which is not ideal because... well, it rains on them sometimes.

Pete puts us all off our dinners by telling us of the medical procedure "tooth-in-eye" surgery which is as literal as it sounds.

He also has BREAKING NEWS which involves literally the opening of an envelope (but it's a really special envelope).

This will be in the news today: The opening of a mysterious envelope containing the last words and thoughts of Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, the first president of Czechoslovakia.

Finally he tells us of the infamous attempted Red Bull Plane Swap... which again is as literal as it sounds!! (oh but the swap was taking place in mid-air rather than just on the ground which may have been more sensible).
