On a roll today.

 

Lad at our school came up with the following:

 

1) Said he was going out with Chun Li from the Streetfighter games

2) Said he had a United season ticket (when they were hard to get), but when someone rang him up at his mum's house at half time claimed the next day that he'd just popped home for a brew

3) Said that he had avoided being run over by a Mini Cooper by jumping over it as it approached

4) Claimed to suffer from delayed reactions to pain, so someone smacked him over the head with a ruler....ten minutes later he let off a massive cry and held his head.

 

Pretty sure they were all lies.

 

NB - if you went to school with Alan Nixon then you cannot use him as an example

When we moved house and I changed primary schools, I thought I'd make up a lie to try and impress my new would-be friends.  I told them I was going on holiday to Australia in the summer.

 

It backfired when I got a lift off one of them and their parents said, "Ooh, we hear you're going to Australia for your holidays.  Whereabouts?"

 

I shat myself and said, "Erm, we might not be going now.  I think we're going to Minehead instead".

Not at school but a bloke called Charlie tipped up in my old local many moons ago and over the course of a few years passed on many o story about his former life in Leigh.

 

He was a fast bowler for local cricket team and got scouted by Lancashire but the drug lord he was working for at the time wouldn't let him do it.

 

He served time for ram raiding designer shops.

 

Played rugby for Leigh.

 

Went to the national championship skateboarding as a kid.

 

Was a top amature boxer.

 

Was head doorman at rubins.

 

Was a scratch golfer.

 

He worked on the building of Disneyland Paris.

 

He's still about and lies of calmed down...but the damage had been done in my eyes!

I sold a lad at our primary a pair of those red and green glasses for a quid and told him he would be able to see the world in 3d.

 

Remember him going around the playground claiming it looked like everything was coming towards him.

 

How I laughed as I ate my 10 bags of beef Space Raiders.

Big E is really good at it, having lived there for a year. I think he's the same age as Diddles, a boy who still lives with his mummy.

 

I reckon Diddles would tear him a new arsehole at FIFA though.

Isn't Germany considered the business and economic powerhouse of Europe?

 

The company I work for is Swiss and in all meetings English is the only language used.

 

Diddles is right, we don't need to learn foreign languages.  If those foreigners are struggling to understand us then you just need to repeat yourself louder and by gesturing/pointing.
