3 lovely facts about puffins from last night's QI:

Puffins beaks and eye decorations are just for the mating season, they fall of during the winter.

Male and female puffins mate for life.

Not so much recently - but until I was about 12, I thought that double yellow lines were the cycle lane and, if a road didn't have them, you couldn't ride down it.
I spent ages planning my route to the shops, only using certain roads - thinking I was being a really good cyclist for not cheating.
