FACT! Post 10 facts about yourself Page 15

Teary That's the last of my innocence gone!

Ok, here goes:

1. I was the first child born in Great Britain in 1984. I was in The Sun for that as the page 2 baby, right across from the page 3 babe.

2. I used to think i was invincible, but then at the age of twelve i broke my arm in two places. At that point i finally understood the meaning of Hubris.

3. I can complete MegaMan 2 without losing a single life.

4. My tongue lacks a certain piece of flesh on it's underside, allowing me to roll it back and insert it up into my nose cavity. Not the best way to impress chicks.

5. I do a mean Matt Bellamy. Something i discovered whilst playing Rockstar on the Xbox.

6. I jog at least 4 miles every day, british weather permitting. I was once attacked by an escaped deer doing so.

7. I once had to breakdance in front of Cherie Blair.

8. I have an Ex-girlfriend who is now married...to another girl.

9. I once met Rich Hall. Upon shaking his hand i said that he does indeed look like Moe Szyslak from the Simpsons. The look of contempt he gave me still haunts me to this day.

10. I have an irrational man-crush on John Barrowman. As a catholic, i can say that it is a source of great confusion and self-doubt.

BONUS 11. No-one knows more about comic books than me. No-one.

Re 7, were you not tempted to have your shoe fly off and smash her in her ugly disfigured face?

If there's one thing that's not, it's irrational.

An escaped deer? Escaped from who/what/where?

I beg to differ. As does sootyj. And Gavin.

But great for discreetly picking your nose.

She had ridiculous levels of security detail. Maybe someone thought one those dirty breakbancers might try to do a filthy knife crime on her.

And as for the whole Barrowman thing. I believe it started when i saw him singing Springtime for Hitler in The Producer's remake. Since then, i can never watch Torchwood without feeling the ever present guilt of being a catholic.

1 My main source of exercise is swimming in a big pond in a park.
2 Freddy Starr threatened to burn my house down.
3 I have a phobia of posting letters.
4 I spent 2 days in a coma, it was my own fault.
5 I went to school with Batman he was 2 years below me.
6 I was the fastest donut eater in UJS.
7 I'm considered politically undesirable by McDonalds
8 Despite being Jewish I once lived in an amicable flat share with a member of the BNP.
9 At 6th form I only ever lost one debate in 2 years. I was arguing Father Xmas didn't exist.
10 A friend of mine was harshly interrogated by the British Army in Northern Ireland.

2. I knew that there was another reason that I like Freddie Starr!
9. Yeah, there's no arguing with someone who doesn't use logic.

;)

Freddie Starr threatened to burn my house down.

Wow the Sun newspaper would have loved that headline over Freddie Starr ate my hamster lol.

2. and 3. Why?

10. What story...?

One of these days some one's Karmas going to run over your dogma.

2 I was a work experience journalist and he was unbelievably pissed, kept going on about hamsters.

3 I dunno. I don't trust the post office, I jsut have an aversion to posting letters.

10 Was a story about a camping trip, which spun on one person approaching the tent and the other thinking they were breaking in. I heard the story from the point of view of in and out of the tent, 2 years apart. With out either person knowing I knew the other.

Karma? Maybe. If you believe in that kind of thing. But you just make it sooo easy.

*tries to restrain himself*

Excellent, you'll all be asleep. I can slip this out and nobody will notice...

1. I was born next to Wormwood Scrubs.

2. As a child I was scared of frogs but not of snakes.

3. I went to school with the director and composer of the St Trinian's film - no, the new one - and the guitarist with Everything But The Girl. (And to university with Vanessa Feltz...)

4. Once while having a crap in an aeroplane toilet I put my feet up on the concertina door for fun and accidentally kicked it open - two people waiting, both had their backs turned.

5. I got drunk with Roger Taylor of Queen at the first Rock In Rio festival, when he famously admitted that compared to all the Brazilian bands his lot were shite. Never got back to the UK that year.

6. In 1993 I had a major car crash in Germany, the second time I've been in a car that's rolled over. Still here, suckas.

7. I drove an upmarket minicab for a year when it all went wrong in life, and met quite a few celebs. Nice people. Most of them. Some of them.

8. I still have a small collection of teddy bears which I don't have the heart to chuck out, (I mean they're family) and I don't know how to take digital photos to flog them off on eBay. That'll please Rubes!

9. I've lived abroad most of my adult life, and been to nearly every country except Australia. I've been arrested in six of them, for varying offences.

10. I flew Concorde in August 2003, on the hottest day ever recorded in the UK, because it was the then girlfriend's major ambition in life.

11. Another time, I once flew out to the US specially to see Raquel Cassidy.

PS British TV is still the best in the world. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.
