1. 6 most ‘unique’ dining experiences in the world
If your definition of a ‘unique dining experience’ is floor seating or using a pair of chopsticks, then you’re in for a rude awakening.
Skyscanner has compiled a list of the ten most unusual restaurants in the world that sees diners eating from toilets bowls to dining while surrounded by corpses.

2. Can toilets get any smaller on planes? Apparently so
We didn’t think it was possible, but apparently it is. Smaller toilets on planes could be coming to the skies soon.
Boeing has reportedly come up with a new way to squeeze more passengers into the Boeing 777-300ER.
And the solution is… make the lavatories smaller (I’m not the only one that thinks they’re small enough already right?).
3. A ‘Mossy’ plane exit
Things got a little bit ‘mossy’ on an easyJet flight last week, when English model, Kate Moss, was escorted off an aircraft for alleged ‘disruptive behaviour’.
Moss was returning from Turkey to London with the budget carrier, when the incident occurred.
According to the Daily Mail, which spoke to a fellow passenger, the model was refused alcohol on the plane, but poured herself vodka from her cabin luggage.
This was followed by alleged ‘disruptive behaviour, which saw the pilot phone ahead to the airport and ask officers to meet the flight.
She was then escorted off, with no arrests made.
The Daily Mail said as police led her off the aircraft she was a little drunk and was apparently heard calling the pilot a ‘basic bitch’.
4. Naked tourists blamed for Malaysia quake
Two Canadians are being blamed for causing the 6.0 magnitude quake in Malaysia last week, after they exposed themselves to the sacred Mount Kinabalu.
The earthquake shook the country’s highest peak on Friday morning, sending rocks and boulders on tourists and hikers.
So far, there have been 13 confirmed deaths, while six more are still missing.
