Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

Wahey first time i can tell this without fear of reprimand although technically not an insult. Throughout my formative years i worked at a posh (the poshest?) hotel in Brighton when the Quo were performing their come-back tour. Having a master key and few morals i could enter any room and rummage as much as i saw fit. Incidentally i accidentally saw Nina Simone nekkid and visiting stars kept in smokes for years. Anyhoo when the Quo checked out one of them forgot their watch. So i pinched it.
