I often come across articles that make me think scientists have a little too much time on their hands. This is a good example. A group of scientists have been working really hard and have found the formula for the perfect sandwich. What a relief. It is based on algebraic variables and takes into account factors such as the thickness of the cheese and the bread and the amount of margarine that is used. You can give a go here and can be sure you will never mess your sandwich up ever again. Thank you science.

When Lieutenant Teddy Bacon lost his gold watch in 1941, he thought it was gone for good. The watch had slipped off his wrist into the harbour in Gibraltar. Surprisingly though, when the harbour was dredged in 2007 the watch was recovered and detailed harbour records meant it was returned to its owner. Perhaps more surprising it that it still worked perfectly.
