Cheating cheaty cheatsI'm rubbish at cheating. I was asked to help run a stall at a local fair. We sold squares on a treasure map for 10p a go, with the one closest to the "hidden treasure" winning stuff.
I told my sister where it was. I'd not really thought through how obvious this would be. I've kind of avoided cheating since, what have you cheated at? Confess all, it'll make you feel better.

employee12754's story reminds me...... of my own story, where my very own sister chose to drop me in it for no reason whatsoever.
Back in the good old days of primary school and not having to worry about much at all, round about 1986, it was another normal start to another normal day. Or so I thought.
Just settling down to breakfast, I was eating my usual bowl of rice-crispies whilst my big sister sat opposite me at the kitchen table, munching on her own brand of cereal. I forget which brand, but she was eating it particularly slowly this morning.
The fact we displayed such brand loyalty is pivotal to what happened next. I finished off my bowl and proceeded on to whatever I did next in my kiddies morning routine, and left my sister still slowly breaking her fast at the kitchen table. Next thing I know, I being yelled at and walloped for what I can surmise, was absolutely no good reason at all. Upon being hauled through to the kitchen again, I am shocked to see milk and Crispies of the Rice variety strewn all over every surface and worktop in our kitchen! My sister had waited til I left the breakfast table then created a mess using my cereal.
She admits to it now, nearly ten years hence, and we can all have a good laugh about it.
Yes, a good laugh...
2nd post. No apols for crapness.
