Space Station

In 2035 the International Space Station will be retired. It will be broken up into small pieces and shipped back to Earth. Once all of the pieces have arrived, it will be reassembled and put in a theme park called "Space Station Fun". Tickets are expected to cost a lot, given that it's really small and uninteresting because it's no longer in space.

Parsley

Italian parsley has to be grown within 28.3 miles of Glasgow, otherwise it's not officially parsley.

Peanuts

Margaret Munt (died 1974) of Scotland was so allergic to peanuts that she could go into anaphylactic shock merely by being in a room with someone who was thinking about peanuts.

Napoleon

Napoleon was enormous. 6 ft 9 inches tall. After his death, his detractors removed all traces of this great size from history. They also recommissioned major works of art to illustrate a much smaller version of him, thinking that it was easier to hate.
