Should you wish to travel between Cleethorpes and Mablethorpe, you could do worse than use the A1031.

It was in 1033 AD that panic spread throughout Europe that the end of the universe may be near. It was the supposed 1,000th anniversary of the crucifixion of Christ, and there was some unusually harsh spring weather. The Book of Revelation predicts the end of the earth after a 1000 year period, (though not actually from the crucifixion.)

The A1039 is a short route (about 8 miles) near Filey, However, you should never have a cause to use all of it at once, as the A165 cuts off a double-back.

I've run out of prepared facts now, so I did a quick Google. Up came "Café 1040". What do you think it is?

Café 1040 was established in May 2000 as a non-profit organization committed to preparing North American college students and twenty-somethings for evangelism in the parts of the world that are least evangelized. We believe that this generation has the ability to complete the Great Commission!

I'd never have guessed. Link

Gene 1041 is known as CDSN corneodesmosin. This gene encodes a protein found in corneodesmosomes, which localize to human epidermis and other cornified squamous epithelia. During maturation of the cornified layers, the protein undergoes a series of cleavages, which are thought to be required for desquamation. The gene is located in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I region on chromosome 6.

I bet you never knew that!

Edward the Confessor came to the throne of England in AD 1042. It didn't all start in 1066 you know :)
