No. 2. We all know how much you are dedicated to healthy eating. :D

Well yes...
But would you like to narrow it down ?

OK, this one has gone on log enough !
It's got to be 4.

I imagine you are to cricket what I would be to synchronised swimming.
This is true.. I was 13, and discovered I had a talent for cricket.. Nothing outstanding but a reasonable all rounder

I was going to go with 4 as well, that is the only one that is a bit sus for me, as 2 on something like a wing would be a doddle as I have done similar.

So I will have to go 5 even though it is probably wrong
I was on a Bird.. Three of us left Lake Garda ( Rovereto actually ) intending to return over two days.
I got parted from the other two on the A7, and decided to just keep going.. Got home about 4am, unloaded the bike and washed it.. Still no one else up in the house so went for a ride.. Did about 70 miles and stopped for grub on the way :)

I know number 1 is correct...or is it? Were you in the picture when she sat on your bike or did you take the picture? Mind you anybody would get a picture with her if they could so yeah, number 1 is correct.
Both sitting on the my bike and with me and her on the stage
Number 5 because access to tall stuff is pretty hard unless it was many years ago & you are afraid of heights ?
During the 70's I had an aerial rigging firm.
Although there were plenty of riggers around back then, only a few had a certificate of competence which both my partner and I held
I was called upon to make a repair on one of the lesser aerials ( i.e. not the main transmitter one ) and had to climb to the top to do it.
The reason I started rigging was two fold.. I was sick and tired of television work, and I was scared of heights !
I wanted to do something that would challenge me :)


I did dive for the school too.. But I was picked for the team not for elegance or style, but I was the only one wo would dive from the 10 metre board !! (( again at odds with my height fear ! )

Which leaves the hair loss malarky
I did go bald early, but not THAT early ! At 24 I looked like someone out of the band Sweet.. I was 36 before I started my monk impression

Me at 27

As @derek kelly was actually the only one who mentioned the hair one, I nominate him for the next one :)

1) I have had a broken neck & had a fight a couple of hours after breaking it.
2) I snubbed Willie Whitelaw.
3) The Russians used to have a file on me.
4) I rioted in Portland.
5) I used to breed rare breed rabbits.
6) I can tell if an egg is double yolk before breaking it open.

Number 6 is the fib. Double yokers have a weird shape, even for eggs....so anyone can tell.

It's not exactly a superpower though is it...? :D

OK. No.2 ..... because it's vaguest of the lot.
No, he visited Chelmsford nick & we were supposed to wait on our landings but as it was eating into our dinner time as he was escorted up the front stairs we disappeared down the back.

Stretching it a bit to say you snubbed him. You buggered orf...!

No. 1 is probably linked to no. 4 and I have my suspicions about that one.

No.3 - They've got files on all of us.
No. 5 - well, Sly Stallone grows rare pansies, so I can well believe that you might breeed rare bunnies.

I reckon No. 4 is the lie. You were probably on riot duty there, not the actual rioters.

No 4 is true, we were on exercises in Portland & they wanted volunteers to be rioters to test the riot squad, bastards didn’t hold back when they caught us.

I agree 5
if it had said 'I used to breed with rare breed rabbits' it would be true.

Jaws gets it right, I used to breed Netherland dwarfs & English black & tans but no rare breeds.

I nominate @Cougar377 as the next to put a list up....
You asked for it....

1) I've been held at gun point by USAF police
2) I was banned from a pub for flashing
3) I went out with Sheena Easton
4 I gave Gary Newman a lift
5) The house I stayed in was struck by lightning and collapsed
6) My best friend stabbed me

Getting confused with this thread now

i'm beginning to think Cougar flashed Gary Newman in a collapsed house while holding Sheena Easton at gunpoint before being stabbed by the USAF police in a lightning storm & has no friends :D

For this reason I chose number 7 as being the lie (y)

It could be 4 as I have no idea who Gary Newman is. I do, however, know who Gary Numan is....:p

I am going with 3 as she was gorgeous, way out of your league
