The first swifts have arrived from Africa.
Swifts are migratory. They arrive in the UK in the last week of April or early May and stay only long enough to breed. … While many immature birds return to the breeding grounds in the spring – some will remain in Africa. The European population is estimated at between 19-32 million pairs.

Before the 19th Century, dentures were made from dead soldiers’ teeth.
Dentistry in 1815 wasn’t exactly as… “intricate” as it is today. In fact, it was downright savage!
After the Battle of Waterloo, dentists flocked to the battlefield to scavenge teeth from the tens of thousands of dead soldiers.
They then took their bounty to their dental workshops are crafted them into dentures for toothless rich people.
One man survived both the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and then later Nagasaki.
Tsutomu Yamaguchi was a 29-year-old Naval Engineer on a three-month business trip to Hiroshima. On August 6, 1945, the Enola Gay dropped its atomic payload on the city.
Yamaguchi was less than 2 miles from ground zero and was thrown into a potato patch.
He survived the blast and was able to make a perilous journey through the devastated city to the railway station.
Here, on August 7th, he boarded a train on an overnight ride to his hometown of Nagasaki.
On the morning of August 9th, he was with some colleagues in an office building when another boom split the sound barrier. A flash of white light filled the sky.
Yamaguchi emerged from the wreckage with only minor injuries on top of his current injuries.
He had survived two nuclear blasts in two days.
