8. I organised a village pantomime (wrote the script, organised the music, played the piano, chased props and costuems...) for six years running. One year Boris Johnson turned up to perform in it, and the event was subsequently mentioned in Parliament.

No flipping WAY!

1. I am a typical Capricon and so I don't believe in horoscopes.

2. I was confused once in an Italian cable car station and went into the ladies loo by mistake. Bonnie Tyler was coming out.

3. At the end of my first year at University I walked out of the English exam because I hadn't read any of the books that the questions were on. And had only been to one lecture.

4. I was stopped once and failed a breathalyser, but had to drive the car round the corner to my home as the lady cop didn't know how to work a dashboard stick shift. She later gave me a lift home as I passed the test at the station. I had drunk half a pint of beer and a glass of wine in a chinese restaurant with one of the girls in black for the addicted to love video behind Robert Palmer.

5. I have a beck in my garden.

9. I once shared a house with a prostitute (again, in Australia) and came home one day to find blood everywhere after one of her dodgy pimps/minders had shoved her hand through our front window.

Was the house used as a business premises?

Once in desperation I was obliged to use the ladies loo on Kew railway station (the gents was out of order). When I went to leave the handle came off the cubicle door locking me in...

Fantastic. Laughing out loud

I always get a double-take if I use the men's toilets.

Edit: That's a weird page break.

I suspect it might have been occasionally, when I was out. However I never saw any evidence of it, no armies of horny johns knocking at the door at midnight or anything. I didn't find out she was on the game for a couple of months, although I had already realised she was dangerously mental by then.

And she seemed so normal when I came to see the flat.

But did she have big knockers?
