[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

thesudesmummy did you know he was gay?

1. I am a synaesthetic

2. I had, what probably amounts to, the world's shortest international sporting career

3. Go back 3 generations and my mum's family are all aristocracy.

slug - did your vaulting pole snap?

1. I also had a near death experience (well, actually more like a death experience)
2. I grew up somewhere hot and lovely and secretly daydream about moving somewhere hot and lovely again
3. I have my Grade 8 in piano, and wish I had more time to play

1. I have seen a UFO in France it was amazing
2. I once showed the whole of Mcdonalds my Phalangee (I was walking past)
3. I gave my MIL some home made chutney this christmas with a Chutney Ferret logo on it (I like her not)
4. I am dull

When I don't understand or know how to do something, I buy books about it - I have lots of books!

I would dearly love to be a neuroscientist but consider myself too stupid.

I have two extra nipples!

Both of my parents could have lived in Australia - Dad's gp's emigrated but didnt like and came back!!!!!!!!! and Mum's family had tickets already for the 50's mass emigration and my Nan changed her mind!

My eldest DD has a middle name after my Nan that wasnt actually my Nan's name despite her thinking it was for 60 years

Have spent much drinking time with an England Rugby captian

whatever a captian is!!!!!!! duh captain

1. I love reading and am sad I no longer have time to read as much.
2. I met my dad for the first time when I was 16.
3. I met mitchell and Webb when I was pregnant with ds.

My DD is allergic to anti-allergy medicine too Muira.

It looks like I have a bag under my eye, but its actually a scar left by a dickhead ex. It looks more prominent when I'm well rested, so I actually look more tired after a good nights sleep!

I'm the only member of my family to pass my driving test first time round.

I can fit 3 TV remotes (2 if sky remote size!) in between my big toe and second toe.

1.I have dyscalculia but didn't find out til I was forty

1. I didn't grow hair under my arms til I was in my early twenties

1. I can't think of another one, but I can always use point 1 as an excuse.

1. Two of my daughters were born 17 days apart.

1. When I was a young teenager I was able to see into the future and some of that has come to pass.

1. I successfully resuscitated a man who had collapsed, was not breathing and showing no sign of life. It took 20 minutes for the ambulance to arrive.

You had a child, then another 17 days later??!!

flaine, is one (or both) of the daughters adopted?

I have an IQ of 155, yet make tea for a living

I feel aristocratic, and am a stickler for etiquette (must be my ancestry- see previous posts)

I don't like dogs or cats.

I was stung by a scorpion as a child. It really hurt.

I knew a family whose daughter was killed by a crocodile

When I was 18 I was asked to audition for a Hollywood film. Didn't get the part and was devastated for about 2 years. Film was rubbish a huge success.

All these high IQ's - mine's only about 117 and my teachers all said I was thick and should do a secretarial course.

In my forties got prof quals, letters after my name and an MBA.

In my 20s made enough money to buy a house in SW London and had almost repaid the mortgage by the time I got married.

1. i have 7 tattoos but only one visible all the time

2.i was married for 4months 3.i drowned in sand when i was 3 and had to be revived

I am a ghost

I travel by UFO on Mondays

I am dating Elvis

another one here with high IQ and zero application (coasting through much of school doesn't really prepare you for the real world)

I have at some point broken my back without noticing (discovered when I had a chest x ray)

my (now ex-)H managed to get himself stuck in a war zone just when our first child was due. It wasn't a war zone when he went there... am probably the only mother in the world who hit 40 weeks and was trying not to encourage the baby to come out :)

My grandmother and great aunt (sisters) and my mother's cousin (not on the same side) all wrote children's books (and all had more than one published; none actually famous though :( )

And I don't have wisdom teeth.

"...see into the future and some of that has come to pass.."

Flaine you sound like Gandalf

After reading so many great responses I have realised my original 3 things were very lame so I'm replacing them with:

1. I've had 10 moped/motorbike accidents. And my ex-boyfriend died in one.

1. My grandad escaped from a prisoner of war camp in 1941. Later in life he was Arther Scargill's lawyer.

1. I've had lots of prophetic dreams; an out of body experience; seen a UFO, lots of ghosts, angels and a mermaid; and I once met an old man (who I'd never met before) who knew everything about me, including things I'd never told anyone.

(I may have imagined the mermaid).

"flaine, is one (or both) of the daughters adopted?"

Or did you have one early and they managed to stop your labour?

My fave is still the 'one man and his dog' triumph....it has stuck with me throughout this thread....

have spend ages reading this and am loving it all:

1. I work as a phone sex line operator - only dh knows this in RL. I really like my job and can get quite turned on with some of the callers.

1. I was a complete kleptomaniac when a teenager and have now learnt to stay away from the shops when I am stressed or freaking out. Have never been caught because I look like a good girl!

1. My best mates (not so d )h tried it on with me at a party 18 months ago, really tried it on with me was rather persistent, and I still don't know what to do about it - have told no-one.
