Is it because of the fact that because multiple people sit there throughout the day, it is LITERALLY a hot desk (human warmth, cups of coffee etc)?

OK guys here it is!

On oil rigs they only provided enough beds for people to sleep in when they weren’t on shift, so that when you finished your day shift you went and got in a bed that someone who was about to start their night shift had just got out of… and it was still warm. They called it hot-bedding. Ergo hot-desking.

Have you noticed the decline in banana quality as well? They are now sickly yellow, I heard a rumour a year or 2 ago of a disease ravaging them, I think it could be true.

Would anyone be interested in a cracking* anecdote about King Gustav III?

#46

(*cracking is my opinion and not a guarantee)

Well, King Gustav III believed coffee was poisonous so he conducted an experiment with two prisoners; making one drink 3 pots of tea a day and the other 3 pots of coffee a day.
He put two doctors in charge of monitoring the results, convinced that the coffee drinker would deteriorate quickly and die first.

Both doctors died before either of the prisoners.

Then Gustav was assassinated.

Finally, the tea drinker was the first of the prisoners to die - at the age of 83.

Wow! And that all happened on the same day??

Anything to do with an ice dagger?

I have noticed no such decline. Maybe it depends on how ripe they are when you eat them?

#53

One doctor would probably have been able to monitor both.
