Telling Wight From Wrong
Archaeologists have found a piece of string that is 8,000 years old. The four-and-a-half inch long string was made from tough stems of honeysuckle, nettles or wild clematis twisted together. Marine archaeologists discovered it when they found a flooded Stone Age settlement just off the coast of the Isle of Wight.

Stone Age
Lucky It’s Just Toilet Humour
Does this happen in Boulder, Colorado, too? A tourist had a lucky escape in St. Gilgen, Austria when a 47-stone boulder (that’s 660 pounds or 300 kilograms) landed on a toilet seconds after he finished using it. Holidaymaker Josef Heller, 47, said: "I had just washed my hands - and as I walked out the door there was an explosion behind me and the whole house shook. "When I looked back I realised a massive boulder had landed on the toilet - smashing it to bits."
