Did you know an egg contains every vitamin except vitamin C

Did you know duck eggs are the largest eggs in the world

Did you know scorpions glow under ultra violet light

I'd never really thought about the fact that you can spell level backwards.
But, I did once read a Readers Digest article about palindromes, and it contained a, short, sentence that can be said to be the same spelt forwards or backwards.
The phrase: " Madam I'm Adam " is spelt the same way forwards or backwards. ( Although, if it is spelt backwards the capital M, capital A and the apostrophe are in the wrong places. )
And, people say that we Welsh don't know how to have fun! :lol: :wink:
