4) Jamie Lawrence (ex-Bradford City footballer) refers to me as 'Somebody' at the bottom of page 237 of his autobiography, 'From Prison to the Premiership'.
Quote: Seefacts @ August 19 2008, 9:09 PM BSTCool. In what context?
I wrote a profile of him for a City website, which included the following:
"The other was lesser known. A pineapple-haired Londoner from Leicester named Jamie Lawrence who people had heard of, but never really thought about. A lad, indeed, who a Foxes supporting friend of mine described as 'was supposed to be "one for the future" but never got there when the future turned up'. Best of all, he'd managed to get into football solely through being in prison for his part in various robberies! The first footballer whose transfer fee didn't match the amount stolen in various armed raids!"
He was using the medium of autobiography to inform me I was mistaken.
(EDIT: The article was very complimentary btw, as he's one of my all-time favourites. Managed to find the profile via that web archiving thing, but there's a big advert obscuring the genius writing: http://web.archive.org/web/20070312005252/www.boyfrombrazil.co.uk/profile.asp?name=lawrence_jamie )

Rather tenuously, my girlfriend's brother-in-law's brother drives The Manics around a lot. He also chauffeurs Charlotte Church. This is much more interesting than all of my facts, I've just realised.

Really? What a lovely tale for the modern age.

Not really, it was just another way for kids to bully each other at school.

Oh dear . . . *tugs collar*
I'm gonna add ten more cause I'm bored.
11) I can cross my toes on my right foot.
12) I was once in a relationship with a man who totally modelled himself on Paul McGanns character in Withnail and I.
13) I can never learn to drive as I get blackouts.
14) In my front room, there is a cross stitch sign I made from a kit bearing the legend "GO FUCK YOURSELF".
15) I never had birthdays as a child.
16) I have a phobia of fairground rides after falling out of one as a small child but cannot recall it.
17) I love old 80s toys. My latest one is a spell and learn I won off ebay!
18) I hold the current house record for hiding in the most places. My score is now 25.
19) On stage in my straight acting days, I have had to kiss a total of five women and only one man.
20) I have a bunny gap in my two front teeth which seems to draw men in (They usually comment on the gap or my lashes. My boobs never get a look in!!!).

Is this a way of saying you are sixteen years older than you claim to be?

Were you suddenly 16?

There's another way of looking at that. They're not actually trying to find you, are they?

LOL.
Quote: SlagA @ August 19 2008, 11:05 PM BSTOh, dear. This is going to put me into certain categories and I took some of the freakier things out.
1) Have Asperger's Syndrome, which is reflected in my love of language and my inability to tell left from right. I sometimes forget which hand I hold a fork with.
I probably do but never went for testing apparently I'm to functional to get it free(I don't agree!), and having worked in ASD services for years am cynical about what help there is out there. Did do a 2 year post grad at Birmingahm Uni in ASDss.
5) I am fascinated by German tank / aircraft designs of WW2, especially experimental prototypes. Bovington Tank Museum is a favourite place for me.
Used to live down the road from there, it's ace! Visited it alot, you know it was founded by Rudyard Kippling. Have you ever seen Hendon RAF museum?
6) I have a recurring dream that I've discovered in my collection a Beatles' album of unreleased songs. Sometimes I wake up singing one of the songs. I always forget it before I get to a guitar.
I write alot of sketches in my dream, I wake up and type them up imediatley. Once or twice straight into critique.
Bloody Norah, I need committing.
Normalacy and good mental health are both deeply over rated.
