AnswersAnswers
  1. It's "bollard". The bicycle rustlers apparently lifted it off and carried it away. A passer-by snapped a bewildered Mr Cameron as he emerged from the shop, only to find his mountain bike missing.
  2. A quadrillion has 15 zeros, according to the widely used US and modern British scale. The increasingly rare traditional British scale put a quadrillion with 24 zeros.
  3. Officials refused permission to name twins Fish and Chips. But other parents have been allowed to call their offspring Midnight Chardonnay, Number 16 Bus Shelter and twins Benson and Hedges. Judge Rob Murfitt's ruling on Talula was released on Thursday, in which he decried the trend for bizarre names.
  4. It's "sex" - with their parents as part of their sex education, according to a survey of 11- to 14-year-olds released on Thursday.
  5. His business card reads, in English, "Human quantum energy". He also lectured and wrote articles on "Orthodox meditation" before his capture after more than 10 years in hiding.
  6. It's £18,600, misjudging their starting salaries by more than £2,000, according to a survey released on Tuesday.
  7. He DIDN'T say "Wall St hit the bottle". At the private fundraiser last Friday, he said "Wall St got drunk... It got drunk and now it's got a hangover. The question is, how long will it sober up and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments?"
