Trivial Pursuit...
For any of you that remember Trivial Pursuit then this might be a worthwhile couple of factoids to store away in the deep recesses of your brain for later recall!
1. No piece of paper can be folded more than 7 times.
2. No word in the English language rhymes with month.
3. Oysters can change from one gender to another and back again.
Hope these factoids help you onto victory!
