Well the rumo(u)r was that copper wire was invented by a Yorkshireman and a Scotsman fighting over a dropped penny. Can’t vouch for the veracity of the story though. ![]()

Let’s have an I or two please…
Coleridge.
Sir, I admit your general rule,
That every poet is a fool,
But you yourself may serve to show it,
That every fool is not a poet.
That’s the one Pyxell… well done. ![]()
A good bit of doggerel too but there is some dispute as to whether Coleridge or Alexander Pope penned it.
Does that mean I haven’t won? 

I always knew that studying the Romantic Poets at A Level would come in useful one day! 
Clever you Pyxell ![]()
Your puzzle can be anything you choose!
