    Genesis had its roots in the Garden Wall, a band founded by 15 year olds Peter Gabriel and Tony Banks in 1965 at Charterhouse School

    I think an 18 year old Watford player scored a great goal against Brazil.

    Which famous English building has a window for every day of the year, unless it is a leap year?

    Just seen this on wiki, so I'm guessing St. Paul's Cathedral!

    The most notable exterior feature is the dome, which rises 365 feet (111 m) to the cross at its summit,[73] and dominates views of the City. The height of 365 feet is explained by Wren's interest in astronomy.

    This is a ludicrous coincidence. All day long the Roger Miller song "Engerland Swings" has been going round and round in my head.

    When I read your reply, I immediately sang, "The Tower of Big Ben! <laugh>
