The combination of 1’s and 5’s is a message from your angels that your thoughts and ideas are creating and bringing about much needed changes in your life. The combination of the energies of 1 and 5 tells of finding new and different ways to do new things and a new-found sense of personal freedom. The angels support you in your endeavours. A example of such a number is 1155

Those who've been following the thread for some time will be aware of my penchant for the centred pentagonal numbers. Put one dot in the middle, surround it with 21 layers of dots in the shape of a pentagon, and you've got 1156 dots in total - the 22nd centred pentagonal number.

But that's not the only geometrical shape you can make with 1156 dots. 1156 = 34^2, so you can arrange them in the shape of a square with 34 dots per side. Furthermore, make them spheres instead of dots, and you can stack them into an octahedron with 12 spheres along each edge - the 12th octahedral number. Quite a versatile number overall!

In December, 18-year-old Nicole Hassall ran up a £1158 mobile phone bill while voting on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!. Orange later said it would halve the bill as a gesture of goodwill.

Leicester's phone number area code is three digits long, for example: 0116 (0116 XXX XXXX) and the number 0 was the trunk code, which all United Kingdom area codes used at that time. In the area code configuration, the 6 X's stood for Leicester local numbers. The most popular of the initial digits of the local numbers of Leicester is the number 3. This is the reason why most callers often mistake Leicester area code as 1163 area code. When callers dial the 1163 area code, they will still be connected to a phone number in Leicester as long as its local numbers start with 3. This can be quite a problem for those businesses that do not have the figure 3 as their initial local number
