A to Z Of The Smallest Weirdest Stuff (N-Z)

X) Smallest Xylophone Player

In my recent list of biggest things I featured the biggest xylophone in the ‘X’ category. I apologise for using the same word here but you will just have to deal with it. So this is a postcard I found on eBay. I really couldn’t tell you any more about it than that, other than it’s signed by the great man on the reverse apparently. Oh yeah, and it will cost you $19.99 plus postage.

Y) Smallest Yacht

This seven metre egg called the Jet Capsule was designed by an Italian fella called Lazzarini. He’s marketing it as a mini-yacht. What’s the difference between a yacht and a boat? It doesn’t seem there’s much technical difference, it’s just that the yacht is built purely for pleasure and leisure with mod cons and trimmings whereas boats and ships are more practically conceived.

If you’ve got a quarter of a million bucks to burn you will be able to purchase one in 2014. Maybe we could go halves or something? Here’s a video showing it off…

Z) Smallest Zebra Crossing In England

What a way to go out hey? Road markings in Northamptonshire, I do like to end on a high note as you know. So, the home of smallest zebra crossing in England is…. drum-roll please…. Raunds. Well done all who were involved in that lovely little waste of council tax.

As ever people, if you have anything to add to this alphabetical slide through the world of the small, holler at me through @timboynewtron OK?
