    Ok, something I wish everyone knew - me being the pedant that I am. What's the difference between they're, their and there.

    They're all here, in their new clothes, standing over there!

    They're = they are
    Their signifies possesion
    There is, I dunno the gramatical word for it but I can use it correctly!
    There's no better way of saying it for me!

    something like 7, however mythbusters disproved the myth and proved that it could be folder more


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,866 ✭✭✭✭5starpool


    7 is the maximum I think, no matter how big.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,980 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6

    In half yes! It's 7, the rule is that it has to stay folded, when they did more it would unfold, if I remember correctly, JCB your go!

    nope its defo 7, have tried it many times!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,172 ✭✭✭Don1


    Under your own power with normal paper it's seven. Myth busters used a super thin sheet, a digger and weights to fold it 12 times I think.

    ah, that edit.

    Male : Cob
    Female : Pen
    Baby : Cygnet

    There is some old house, it might be Malahide, where the family was called Cobbe, I think, and they have all these pictures of Swans arund the place.

    This is where I learned this.
