I have just written a sketch that kind of relies on the fact people know what the collective noun of crows is.
Is it common knowledge or just an obsure fact I have picked up?

I'd know it but then I do Google them from time to time just to throw into conversation.

Damn, thought so, if they have to Google the punchline then I guess not a good plan.
I think it probably depends on how old you are.
I knew what it was, but then I'm very, very, really, super, very smart.

Touché.
I knew. But then I am a birdwatcher. And a smartarse.
It's actually an old sketch of mine, was looking at submitting it with a host of others to someone.
