I was concerned for a while that I was living a real-life version of "Final destination..."

I've suffered from altitude sickness in the Himalayas.

I loathe shopping malls and christmas.

Despite being on Mumsnet, I have no children so hope this isn't creepy.

I can't stand my cousin who lives up the road.
I knew I was pregnant and pretended not to, so that continuing the pregnancy was a fait accompli when I "discovered" I was pregnant.

When I was at uni I went for an interview at ASDA and failed . The lowlight was when they were talking about how old I was and I realised I'd put the wrong age on the application form (17 instead of 19) oh the shame.

Compo from Last of the Summer Wine once helped me into the back of a van (not in a kidnappy way) and I couldn't stop giggling because he was famous. I also once ignored Jimmy Saville and pretended not to know who he was!

Once when I was in the car with my dad, a plane flew down really low over us (could see the markings on the underneath of it) and we were convinced it was going to crash on top of us. No-one believed us when we told them but we both thought we were about to die!

I was evacuated out of Lebanon in a Greek war ship when Israel started bombing in 2006.

My DH's paternal grandfather was a German soldier in WW2. His maternal grandfather was a Hungarian Jew who had been deported to Auschwitz. I am of Arab descent. So, my DD is German/Jewish/Arab, raised atheist.

Very shamefully, I once had sex with a cousin.

Back of a van with Compo! love it!!

(apparently for my safety but a few yrs later my sisters friend got pregnant and stayed until 8months I left at 4months when a classmate told the teacher)
