I am back from my little break, and have been catching up what on what everyone has been up to.  This post at Cliff’s place made me chuckle, and though I vehemently avoid memes, I thought I would give this one a go.

1. My uncle once: told me a rude joke that made me laugh so hard a bit of wee came out.

2. Never in my life: have I said boo to a goose.  Though I really want to, one day.

3. When I was five: I dated my first older woman.  Not that I had much say in the matter.

4. High school was: about four years too long.

5. I will never forget: jumping out of an aeroplane.

6. Once I met: Paul Gascoigne, pre-mental health issues.

7. There’s this girl I know: who thought the space shuttle landed like the rocket on Button Moon.

9. By noon, I’m usually: turning off my alarm clock again.

10. Last night: I wrote a three-page introduction to a brochure for a lads holiday I am going on next month. It was loaded with Nazi jokes.

11. If only I had: the chance to do it all again.

12. Next time I go to church: will be a wedding or a funeral.

13. What worries me most: are things I think I’ve forgotten.

17. What I miss most about the Eighties is: my first BMX.

18. If I were a character in Shakespeare I’d be: Ford.

19. By this time next year: I’ll be playing it cool Trig.  That’s right isn’t it?
