Whilst on the subject of presidents of the USA, it has happened twice in their history that 2 ex presidents died on exactly the same day. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams managed this on July 4th 1826 (Independence day) - which two managed to achieve this on the same Boxing Day many years later ?
It was indeed the same one BB. They both died on Boxing day the 26th December 1972 within a couple of hours of each other. Over to you.
Ford must have the unique honour of becoming the first president to be elected after his death - he was president from 1974 to 1977. Which international football side's record reads: played 4, lost 4, goals for 0, goals against 70?
Just goes to show that you can't always believe what you read in the net Ford did indeed die on Boxing Day but many years later !
Sherlock Holmes : ''So my dear Watson, what do you make of this'' Dr Watson: ''Bearing in mind the originator i would hazard a guess that this is obscure - possibly Antipodian'' Sherlock Holmes: ''I rather tend to agree about the last bit'' ''but there is always the possibility that the truth is closer to home - have the Isle Of Man ever played as a team'' ? Dr. Watson: ''Could this be an Island which does not have full sovereignty'' ? Sherlock: ''This could explain why they only played 4 matches' Watson'' Sherlock again: ''We need to offer a solution and see if he inadvertently gives any clues away as a result'' Dr Watson: ''We could try Fiji or Tonga and see what comes back before planning our next assault'' Sherlock: ''Tonga has a certain ring to it but are they really that bad ?'' ''They're pretty hot at Rugby - and why only 4 matches ?'' Dr. Watson: ''Definitely not obscure enough'' Sherlock: ''Are the Galapagos Islands obscure enough'' ? Dr Watson: ''I rather like the sound of that'' Sherloch: ''Ok. we'll go for the Galapagos Islands and see what happens''
The truth certainly is closer to home - in fact almost at home. The population of the Galapagos Islands is around fifty times the size of this place...
It certainly is. Their only four matches resulted in four losses - 0-20 to the Isle of Wight, 0-19 to Gibraltar, 0-16 to Greenland and a much improved 0-15 to Frøya - all in the 2003 Island Games held in Guernsey. Over to you.
