[Panda Bear]

Thought this might be fun and interesting to see what come up in the posts for those interested in numbers, not true mathematics as such.

To kick off I offer that numbers also influence the way we speak eg. " two's a company", Six of one half dozen of the other and so on" as well as
unlucky thirteen and lucky seven.

How about this Snow White and the Seven dwarfs and Seven wonders of the World and finally twelve sign of the Zodiac. the list could go on and I need to know..

Now over to you...you will be amazed ans I am sure I will be with some of the most interesting facts and finds you come back with..give it a whirl
