Title: Tell us something odd or interesting about youself. Post by: cdw1111 on August 27, 2009, 12:25:11 AM I really enjoy reading The LOUNGE on 2+2 and this thread came up,so why don't we give it a go?
So have you been to the North pole,broke a bone in an unusual way or had a great sporting achievement?etc.etc.etc. I'll start,I have a condition called hetrochromia,which is just a posh way of saying i have an odd coloured eye.Some people notice straight away(usually women) others who have known me for years have never noticed and are quite surprised when it's mentioned in front of them.

Post by: Dingdell on August 27, 2009, 01:15:47 AM I once met the Princess Royal while I was completely stoned.
I once arrested a man who was naked from the waist down and was holding an enormous black dildo that was still plugged into the wall and he was pointing it at me in an agressive manner as it twirled at the top. I have been on Panorama twice, once aged 5 and once aged 25. Title: Re: Tell us something odd or interesting about youself.

My father's next door neighbour when he was growing up was George Cohen. I was once invited to a Party held by the wiilliams F1 team. My friends and I all got dressed up expecting a posh bash, only to find out, when we got there that it was a bikers party (all grease and Motorhead). Had a great time anyway.

Post by: Claw75 on August 27, 2009, 10:38:05 AM Oh yeah, Saturday morning kid's telly. I have a few of those!
I spoke on the telephone to Huey Lewis on Saturday Superstore, but they spelt my name wrong on the screen :( I was also on hold one week to speak to Su Pollard, but they ran out of time. Gutted I was. My brother also won the first 'silly sound contest' on same show (where Keith Chegwin gave away a kazoo) that had rolled over a whole week. I knew the answer, but was too embarrassed to ring up, so Dan did it instead. The prize was a crappy red plastic jobbie, not all shiny and gold like Cheggers said it would be. During my pop-star groupie days I managed to get on to the set of Going Live when they were doing an OB at Yarmouth Castle and was dancing around like a loon with my mates behind the group we were following. Afterwards some little kids came to ask me and my mates for our autographs as they thought we were pop stars ;D Title: Re: Tell us something odd or interesting about youself.

I spent 11 years training for this result but it clashed with a big international so most of the top Scots weren't there. Achieved my ambition but it felt like a really hollow victory. Weird feeling. Also marked the end of a journey I was enjoying. Still, it's an official result and I'm chuffed in hindsight. Doesn't do the cv any harm either.

Spurs had recently installed these big metal grill things to keep fans of the pitch and the tops of them were at a 45 degreeish angle. A few packets got caught on the top and Linda pressed herself again the grill to try and reach the packets that had got stuck. Her boobs pressed through the grill and the fans surged forward all trying to get a feel (they were covered i hasten to add, not bare). I was near the front and 7 people got squashed and trod on, myself included ... it was atually very scarey being in a stampede like that) On the plus side myself and the others were 'rescued' by stewards/st Johns ambulence peeps and moved onto the side of the pitch to recover so i was able to watch the firsthalf of the game at the side lines with Linda Lusardi ... result ;D Title: Re: Tell us something odd or interesting about youself.

When the ground was completely empty we staggered down onto the pitch with the intention of rolling along the grass from one goal to the other. We reached the half-way line before stewards escorted us out of the ground. My friend was sick exactly on the centre circle spot.
