I'm not sure how much information to impart at this early stage of our relationship.

My family tends to think I have an unlimited store of odd facts. My kids used to call them "Mom's fast facts."

I've been accumulating bits of information for a long time and so out pops the odd fast fact when I'm just sitting there, listening intently. Many of my sentences being with, "Did you know ..."

In short, I like trivia and so thought I would stop by and see if trivia likes me back.

Thank you.

Did you know ...

I had been looking around at trivia forums and was happy to find this one. I need to increase the readily available fast facts.

Looks like you've come to the right place Patti, and to me LBoH means London borough of Hackney, or Haringey. Unless you lived there before? More facts as you asked
