Default You learn something new every day!

Well, well, well.

This morning I found out something I didn't know!

To set the scene...

Several weeks ago while enjoying some nicotine refreshment in the smoking garden at work I noticed an odd looking bug. It seemed quite strange to me and was something I had never seen before.

A few days later I noticed that the bug was no longer a bug but instead had transformed itself into a Pupa. Despite searching then I couldn't find out what it was and was somewhat flumoxed.

This morning, the pupa had hatched! here's what it was



I didn't know that Ladybirds hatched from a pupa!

I love google

So what have you learnt today which you didn't know?

I learned from one of our Health and Safety people at work that as from 1st July signs showing the international no-smoking symbol, at least 70mm in diameter, must be displayed in all smokefree vehicles - in each compartment in which people can be carried.

I learnt last friday in Data Protection training that the only country that is not 'protected' by data protection...isn't Nigeria...or anywhere else where scammers are rife.

Its the US.
