Bored with that thread.
Tell us about something you got wrong when you were younger that makes you cringe to this day.

As a youngster I thought God's name was Peter and announced this loudly at some family do. My reasoning behind this was that at church the priest would say 'Thanks, Peter God' at the end of the service.

i was the child who believed the story about the deaf old lady at the back of the room during ballet performances etc
over all the dulcet tones of the demure little girls can be heard my surprisingly gruff yorkshire accent bellowing: "NEEEEEEEVER SMIIIIIILE AT A CROCODIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILE".

also i had a bad habit of taking my pants off everywhere, including at the altar during my brother's christening. my parents found these family videos hysterical enough to bring out to every friend/bf i ever had.

luckily i now have sweet accent-less dulcet tones. and my knickers are glued to my arse.
