3 things Id never know about you

[NorwegianMoon]

I am unsure to whether this has been done before but here goes mine...

1. I had a near death experience

1. I saw a UFO fly over my house

1. I am a Muslim

now go!

*I once peed in Gene Wilder's toilet.

*Despite being really quite common myself, my god daughter is a direct descendant of William the Conqueror.

*When I was about 18 I found out that I have a step brother I had never been told about. Which was odd, given that despite having two younger brothers who irritated me greatly as a girl, I always fantasized about having an older brother.

... and co-incidentally I too have seen a UFO and have had a near death experience (in that order). And had never given either much thought until just now.

One thing I wouldn't know about you OP, is why you think this should be in AIBU????

1.there is a photo of a 12yr old me on the herald of free enterprise ferry.

2.one side of my family is not english.

3.i used to get into concerts for free by blagging my way onto the guest list.

Its taken me half an hour to get to the end of this thread!

Here goes:

1. My grandad was a Romany Gypsy who was banished by his family for a) marrying a non-gypsy rather than his cousin who had been promised to him when he was 3, and b) refusing their offer of a trailer to live in a house instead!

2. I recently donated eggs to my sister and she is now 10 weeks pregnant with her first round of IVF

3. I miss my family in the UK a lot less than I probably should - including above sister!

1. I have a vile and truly filthy obsession with squeezing spots - and my poor dh hates it.
2. I once lied and said I was a black belt kickboxer. I am now engaged to said person I lied too and still havent told the truth
3. I still watch friends re-runs and love them over and over.

I have been arrested but not charged on 3 continents.

I used to play 'a sport' for my county

I have learnt how but not yet why.

ps dh is a habit - he is actually my dp soon to be dh - just thought I would clear that up

1. I hate chocolate-the smell of hot chocolate makes me retch, can't kiss dh when he's eaten it, mint flavoured is the most vom inducing.....

1. I was in a Jackie photo story.

3.I'm an English teacher, but I find spelling very difficult.

My dh has been on the front page of The Economist, his photo is frequently wheeled out by newspapers and magazines.

Sorry that was number 4 but I'm just getting inspiration from other posts.

Oh yes, I forgot the other boring fact I like to trot out on these sort of occasions:

When my god awful Secondary School was finally shut down it was used as the set for tv show Teachers. Andrew Lincoln's English classroom (where Kara Tointen and James Cordon were amongst his pupils) was actually my old history classroom.
If you watch the show you'll often see them walking down a corridor with a Solar System mural on the wall: that was the science block and my form room was on that corridor.

1. I never bothered to teach the DC's to say mummy but I did teach them to say (and recognise) 'Marmite'.

1. I used to be able to do more boy push ups than most boys, my record was 50. I beat one bloke in a competition in a pub, I won despite being slightly drunk on champagne.

1. I got into Mensa but have been an academic failure and never went to Uni.

1. I lived in Africa till I was 7. This meant I was born I'm the Congo, my parents were passing through.

1. I was scouted by Sarah Doukas (she found Kate Moss) when I was 13. I have walked for major designers at the catwalk shows and have had 3 Vogue covers, not UK though.

1. I snuck out of (boarding) school with my best friend to go to a Michael Jackson concert through the yr. 7 common room window. One of the nuns saw us coming back but as she was new we gave fake names. Never got caught. :o

Ooh Cavemum i've just remembered Corden in that prog!

swissmiss are you in Basel now? Sorry to go off topic - I answered your post In the Swiss local bit !

1. I was born without a spleen, and didn't realise till pregnant with the DT's. It has never caused me any problems.

1. My horrible horrible cockup yesturday got me a thread in classics. Despite suspicions it was horribly and unfortunately all true.

This thread is ace.

1)I trained as a dancer but nobody in my current life knows (nor would they guess as I am a fat frumpy biffer now).

2)Used to have secret 'dinner parties'scoffed pizza with my colleagues in Andrew Lloyd Webber's old flat.

3)My Uncle tried to snog me once and I have never told anyone in my family.

bambi I did read your other thread.

You have my sympathies, but it did make me snort with laughter. Any further fallout from other parents?
