This is a question Question of the Week suggestions

Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:

* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer

What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Small but annoying mysteries
My dad was on a train and overheard one half of a telephone conversation, including the immortal line:

"Yeah, there was only one in Norwich but it was covered in ants."

Neither my dad nor anyone he has ever shared the "Great Norwich Mystery" with have been able to offer a sensible suggestion as to what he was talking about.

Also, why does tea drunk through a straw taste horrible?

maybe....
it was the only personal appearance by the eponymous Adam in the Norwich area, and the telephonic protagonist was unable to get near enough to get a signed copy of Stand and Deliver, due to the amount of Ants.

Oh sorry, sensible suggestions ? no, don't know the tea one either.

I'll give you a click just for wasting your time.....

the hot liquid softens the plastic
causing it to release toxic free radicals. these damage the flavors in the tea.
