'Cat & Fiddle' & Other Questions?

Why are firemen nearly always FAT and out of shape? Even the younger ones, i know this, because i have a tendency to come over all aquiver when i fire engine goes past, but lately i have been sorely dissapointed upon looking up into the truck.

Also why is a fire engine, a'fire-engine?' Surely if you were to describe the actual engine, it isn't an engine...its a truck? So how come its not actually a fire truck?

Why do we all have different accents, when all babies cry in the same way?

If babies have eyes when they are born, then do they see in the womb? If so, in the future will we have like a womb version of CRIBS?

Why on the weather forcasts do they show really obscure & random places on the map? You would imagine that they would want to use popular, well known locations as surely the whole point of putting them on there is to give the viewers at home can easily see where they live on the map. I mean, obviously poeple should know basic geography but many poeple are ignorant and do not. Anyways an example;

ITV news, there is a map...on this map we have a couple of well known places, for example; Leeds BUT THEN they just have loads of ridiculous places that i have never heard of and suspect they may have made up.

Okay, 'Cat & Fiddle' anyone?!?!? Why use this obscure location as being a effective reference point on a map? Maybe i am just stupid but srsly, sort this out the news !
