when i first learnt that the world was shaped like a ball i thought that all the people in austraila must have little suction pads that grow on their feet to stop them falling off i was terrified when my uncle moved there because, being born in england, he didn't have suction feet and would obviously fall to his doom as soom as he got off the plane
