Going Too FarEver had one of your mates go too far? Back when I was a teenager I went to stay with a friend in the country. We took his dog for a walk in some woods - which was fun.
We came across a breeding pen for the local pheasant shoot - which was interesting.
But then my friend broke into the cages, grabbed a pheasant, strangled it and proceeded to throw it around, only managing to rescue it from his dog's jaws seconds before a gamekeeper turned up to see what the hell was going on. Now, that was a bit too far...

Bear smellWhen I was little ickle, I had a teddy bear called Edward. I’d had him since I was two and he was my bestest friend. Each night as I went to sleep, I’d cuddle Edward and the smell of the top of his head (I can smell it now, in my mind’s nose) would reassure and calm me. His head was stuffed with sawdust or something and it was a very special smell.
Like a fool I’d mentioned this to my brothers, and one day we were fighting as usual – I was probably about six when I did something to one of my elder brothers, can’t remember what but it was obviously bad…
…in revenge…(sob)…he got Edward and sprayed the top of his head with lemon-fresh air freshener. I can’t remember exactly what happened next, it’s all a haze, but tears, parents, flailing tiny fists were all involved. It took a couple of weeks for the smell to go completely, but eventually it did, and the old smell remained unimpaired.
But that was TOO FAR.
