cliff climbing at 8 years old
My family were on holiday at the beach. I was 8 and decided to scale a cliff which we were sat in front of. To be honest, the bit I decided to climb was only about 15ft, but I was an expert tree climber, so I thought this should be no problem.
About half way up, I hit a sandy bit and my bottle went completely. I could feel myself falling any second and started to make this high pitched wail. My dad thought it was very funny and started taking the p!ss.
My response 'I don't have any grip because I bite my nails'
He's never let me live that down 30 years on.
Worst still, my younger sister who was 6, climbed up and helped me down.

800g loaf
Was really late coming to work one day, so hurridly grabbed an 800g loaf out of the freezer and pack of cheese out of the fridge with the intention of making a sandwich at lunch.
One of my mates spotted it and bet me a fiver that I couldn't eat the whole thing. I took one look at it and thought 'I can do that easy' and then proceeded to eat the whole bloody thing.
I didn't shit for 3 days nad I'm still waiting for that fiver!

I have loads of these...
I will post when more pop into my head.
On one occasion, my sisters rabbit STARSKI (in hutch!) disappeared.
On the Sunday following my dad did the Sunday lunch and waited until we had all finished before announcing the meat was in fact rabbit!!
My sister leapt from her chair into the toilet and started retching for Britain!

» Worst Nicknames Ever
Whats in a name?
A friend of mine at school was called 'snotrag' becuase he always had a cold. At the age of 10 it was changed to 'jif' (presumably because he was a bit of a lemon)
He's still known to this day as jif - he's 33 now!
Others nicknames at school were:
Rayni
Oggle
Wotnot
Podge
Tats
..I was (and still am) known as Smudge.

Another train related story...
Bloke helps wife and her baggage onto train. Doors close behind him, leaving him on train with wife and baggage.
We're on a sprinter train in Leicester and the last stop before London. He tries to explain his plight to the conductor who was having none of it. Bloke then had to pay a return fare.
Half an hour later, train breaks down and we are on the train for 5+ hours. Its a bank holiday!
We finally get into London after the trains have stopped running for the night, so he then had to find accommodation for the night, before returning the next day.
Expensive weekend for him me thinks :)
