Tagged!!

Prada Pixie tagged me to list 8 things about me that no-one knows. OK, you did ask!


  1. My Grandma lived next door to Mickey Gallagher's (the keyboard player in Ian Dury and the Blockheads) Grandmother.

  2. Bobby Moncur (ex Newcastle United and Scotland captain) rescued my escaped budgie from a tree when I was little.

  3. I once saw a teenage girl fall from a road bridge and die all because of some stupid prank!

  4. I don't dye my hair the highlights are natural.

  5. When I was 21 the police stopped me for driving with a faulty light. I'd drunk 6 pints and he didn't breathalyse me! I took this as an omen and never drunk and drove again!

  6. I'm not superstitious.

  7. I broke my arm climbing up a drainpipe which came away from the wall. Ouch!!

  8. In my teens I worked in a butchers on Wednesday afternoons. The butcher used to get me to make the mince, I've never been able to get my nails as clean since!

One of these is a lie! Which one?

#4. Natural highlights my arse!

Oh and I note the pink badge is low enough that it doesn't appear unless you scroll down the page; I think you should move it to the top! Be proud to be pink!

Chris King said...

I really couldn't say which one is the lie yet but thanks for the guesses.

H I; That was something I'm not too proud of! Oops gave that one away so it must be true. DOH!

L in R; Well thought out arguement!

Kahless; 'Natural highlights my arse!' Who the hell is your hairdresser?

Kahless said...

I go to the barbers; £4.80 a time.

Unknown said...

I can't believe the policeman didn't notice six pints on you breath without resorting to a test, so I'm plumping ofr that one.

Chris King said...

JD; Hi, that makes two of us! I was ready for the handcuffs! Good guess but sorry, no cigar!!

Kahless said...

LOL. I wasn't switched on when I popped by this morning.

:o)

Lady in red said...

I vote for number 5!!!!!! That one seems most likely...

though I sort'a want to vote for number 3, because I think it would be hard to put an exclamation point on after seeing someone die (I take punctuation personally, don'cha know)...

then again that doesn't seem like something to lie about for someone as superstitious as you'd have to be if that weren't the lie...wait...what? :-0 :-0 :-0

DJ Kirkby said...

Oooohhh Jill, anyone would think you are a teacher the way you carry on about punctuation...:-)not sure how you cope with reading my blog, remind me to give you a medal sometime.

Chris King said...

L in R; It was very interesting, I'll be back! Glad you enjoyed your time here!

Jill; Nice to meet you! I use exclamation marks everywhere! Ooops! There's another! You aren't fussy about CAPITALS though! Eh? LOL!!!!

I'll publish the answer after I get back from the vets, If I make it alive!! Bugger another one!

Queen Vixen said...

Last one is a lie. Though you do seem to have a thing about butchers the fingers clean thing is too obvious, been used in too many sitcoms to be true for you. I'm wrong arent I - oh sod it I know I am wrong.

Chris King said...

Wrong!!

Kate M said...

I went to a posh b'day party the other day at the Dover street arts club. As the birthday boy cut his cake, the curtains behind him drew back and out popped.....Ian Dury and the blockheads, ok, minus Ian Dury, but nonetheless, if you asked me how many of my lifetime ambitions I had achieved, I would now be able to tick one off! They were effing great.

Chris King said...

Hi Kate; How cool was that? What a great birthday!
