That I've grown a ponytail and am thinking about tattoo number one....
Plus my broad mind and my narrow waist have started changing places...

Not me but a friend...
... we were out walking in the Yorkshire Dales about 12 years ago. You know Gaping Gill? Deepest pothole in the country. Deep enough to swallow St Paul's Cathedral. She thought it funny to walk right across the edge where the stream runs over the lip and plummets 500ft to the bottom. I was keeping a safe 20 ft away.
And I had my camera on her when she slipped. I froze, I couldn't hit the shutter button. Luckily she didn't fall to the left. I eventually managed to get a picture of her with this enormous great "Isn't it fantastic to be alive?" grin on her face.
And then she died last year of a sudden heart attack. *sad*

» Look! It's me in the Local Paper
Hit Single In Liechtenstein
My band had a number 19 hit in Liechtenstein. Look, here's the fax our friend in Vaduz sent us, with the pop charts from the local paper. Number 19. Wow. What's that Mr Local Paper Journalist? A photo shoot? Yes of course. Oh by the way we've got a new album out.
We made page five, between a story about an axe murderer and a crazed gunman. And the fax? *cough* photoshop *cough*. And the pop chart? *cough* der spiegel *cough* scanner *cough* photoshop...

» Impromptu Games You Play
Tree-fluid
A game for two players.
First person says 'Tree'
Second person says 'Fluid'
Back to first person, who says 'Tree', and so on.
Winner is first person to say 'Sap!'. The idea is to say 'Sap!' exactly before your opponent was going to say it, to maximise their frustration. At first you may think this is silly, and you'd just say 'Sap!' on your first go, but that triumph pales once you get to the advanced level, and go round about 20 times, as the tension rises, and you get a 'Sap!' in.
Its a simplified Mornington Crescent, really...
