Question of the Week suggestionsEach 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.)

Things I Thought I SawHave you ever seen things and mistaken them for something else? I have. I was driving home from work late one night last week. It’s a long drive through the country, and it was getting dark. This is what I thought I saw:
A 10-foot meerkat (it was a tree stump)
A small red-faced snowman wearing a top hat (it was a thin reflecty bollard with a poster fixed to it about a third of the way down)
Some white rabbits playing musical statues (they were stones on someone’s verge)
A giant pair of trousers and a chair (it was a ruin on a hillside in silhouette)
A dead angler in the River Tweed (it’s been there a fortnight, I think it’s just a bit of wood)
A herd of penguins (again, bollards)
About a million frogs on the road (nope, just leaves. Didn’t stop me squealing every time I ran over one though)
