Contains a cure for everything from AIDS to pubic lice, and makes you good at fighting, if I remember correctly.

Ahem, not even in this country, I'm afraid. I went on a tour of a castle (Might have been Caerphilly), which has some which go anticlockwise in case you are fighting to get into your own tower.
My random fact: Apparently the Guinness Book of Records is the book most often half-inched from libraries.
I bet that was a messy wedding.
Number 6 in the top 10 Guinness World Records:
6) Most Ferrero Rocher chocolates eaten in one minute
Reuben Williams unwrapped and ate five Ferrero Rocher chocolates in one minute at De Hems in Soho, London in November 2007.
I think I can easily beat this...

Michel Lotito (aka Monsieur Mangetout) from Grenoble, France, has been eating metal and glass since 1959. Gastroenterologists have described his ability to consume 900 g (2 lb) of metal per day as "unique". Mangetout - Michel's nickname - literally translates as "eats everything". Michel says bananas and hard-boiled eggs make him sick.
