Supermarket Sweep
During my student days I was on Supermarket Sweep.
Got through to the final round where you have to find the two grand but got conned by the last question. Had to look for a 'trifle' but it turned out to be a box of Mr Kiplings Trifles which are not trifles they're bloody cakes so went looking in the wrong place grrrr.
Still, got the monetary equivalent of the contents of our trolley and £269 went a long way in those days.
In case you were wondering everything in the supermarket was real except for the frozen poultry.
Submitting to this QOTW feels kind of therapeutic.

Cordially mine
I was drinking my way through a glass of orange cordial when I thought it tasted a bit off. Not letting that bother me, around half way down I noticed the fat from my Spaghetti Bolognese beef mince had been drained out into the glass (which my ex claimed to have not washed properly). The image (and taste) of beef fat slowly pouring out of the bottom of the glass into my mouth will stay with me forever.

BMI Baby
After a late night drunken conversation with my brother who lives overseas I decided to book a plane ticket to go and see him the next day. Problem was, I was supposed to head for the airport four hours after the call to get the 7am plane. I was awoken at 9am by a call from my brother at the airport asking me why I wasn't on the plane. Whoops.

Air Rifle
I once ran around the garden while my brother tried to 'pick me off' with an air rifle using thin twigs for ammunition.
We stopped the game when one of the twigs hit me in my stomach and embedded itself in my flesh.
