A story my friend has repeated about his friend's friend countless times.
This lad (cannot remember his name, let's call him Sean) had been going out with this lass called Natalie for several months. They came close to splitting up quite a lot but always got back together again stronger than before. Now one day after school, Sean decides to end it. He tells Natalie and she gets all tearful. Now he walks off to catch the bus home (this was all happening at school, by the way). Now she reallises he's disappearing and starts to run off after the bus. According to my friend it was "like something out of a romance film. Dead loving etc.". As she charged after the bus, one of her friends appears and shouts something so legendary that even I, who has never met Natalie or "Sean" (in fact I only know two people who were on the scene) know it. In the best whiny east midlands schoolgirl voice you can do came the cry.

"NATALIE! YOU'VE GOT NETBALL!"

She is now known to all that don't know her as "Netball Nat".

NB- facts may have been changed slightly due to chinese whisper effect
