    I've seen several adverts on billboards in the Edinburgh area that state "Spencer Perceval was the 17th Prime Minister of Great Britain." The words are in black on a yellow background but there is no clue to what is being advertised. Anyone have any idea?

    		I've heard about these mysterious posters, but there seems to be no obvious message or explanation for them. Black and yellow in the animal kingdom indicates 'dangerous' or 'poisonous' though, so maybe there's a hint?

    		The Edinburgh City Council web-site is http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk and there is a 'contact us' section. They may have some information?

    It was my understanding that when a nation such as Great Britain, Canada, Australia or Japan has a Monarch as Head of State, then that country's Head of Government is referred to as a Prime Minister. I recently learned that Spain has a King and a President. Why?

    Constitutionally, who must a new monarch of Great Britain inform first upon his accession to the throne, and it's not the prime minister?

    I have just read a book which said that the remains of a late Australian prime minister was found in the stomach of a great white shark. Who was the unfortunate prime minister?
