Expensive Mistakescoopsweb asks "What's the most expensive mistake you've ever made? Should I mention a certain employee who caused 4 hours worth of delays in Central London and got his company fined £500k?"
No points for stories about the time you had a few and thought it'd be a good idea to wrap your car around a bollard. Or replies consisting of "my wife".

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.....But enough.
My tales are, in the main, true. I've said it over and over again. Some are embelished a wee bit, and none of them have the dialogue exactly right, but the gist of the tales happened.
I am legion. I'm one of many,many people who bear the gift/curse/title of raconteur .
Meet me in the flesh and I'm ordinary. Take me out of situations I'm comfortable with and I'm quiet. But I'm always watching, always listening, always looking for some way to amuse myself and that often ends up with me thinking of ways to describe what's happened that might make an anecdote one day.
I tell my tales in two places. Here, on B3ta, and also on my blog (which I've sadly neglected). (Dear God I'm drunk..)
Actually, Im to pissed to write anymore.
