not someone else
but me, sadly, being overheard by all my little classmates.

I can't remember how old I was at the time... not very, though. Ghostbusters had just been released and I was excitely quoting lines with another friend who'd seen it.

Cue one of those moments when everyone goes quiet randomly and I carry on talking at my previous volume.

Me: "I like her because she sleeps above the sheets."*

Everyone else: "OOOOoooooOOOOOooooh!"

*somewhat spoilt by not being able to remember the quote properly, but there you go.


This was on a school trip somewhere... Swanage I think. We were there for a week. That same night, at the hotel shortly after lights out, me and my mate are up to no good again. This time we're quoting pop songs at each other.

Teacher's doing the rounds, and gets to our door just in time to hear me giving a fine rendition of "R-r-rock me Amadeus!"

Ah youth. Eh? Eh? No? Oh...

ps: no apologies for length. exercise yer readin' muscles yer lazy sods.
