Not a lot of people know this but the Newhaven incinerator consists of a basement 18 metres deep and 45 metres square.
Not bad considering the base is 17metres below the tidal river level

I will pitch in with one.. Not a lot of people know this..but the kangaroo and emu are on the emblem of Australia as they cannot walk backwards, only forwards. It was designed to tie in with the national anthem 'Advance Australia fair' |

Not a lot of people know this but it's far far cheaper to buy a good enthusiast owned Porsche for a bit more than to buy a cheap one & do it up. Or get one from a dealer. (Which is usually a cheap one with an inflated price.) Sorry I couldn't resist that.
