Things we do to fit in"When I was fifteen," writes No3L, "I curled up in a Budgens trolley while someone pushed it through the supermarket doors to nick vodka and Benny Hedgehogs, just to hang out with my brother and his mates."
What have you done to fit in?

YupThat used to be me. Having friends around was an awkward experience, particularly when it came to balancing between speaking heavily Indian-accented English to the parents (which would make my friends think I'm weird) or speaking English with my Kiwi accent (which would confuse my parents) or speaking Gujarate (to avoid exposing the accent I used when talking to the parents, however that's considered rude when we have people round). Makes me feel like a daft tit when I think about it...
