Saw this on Shoemoney's blog and since no-one ever tags me I made it a happen to tag myself, so here goes:
1. I fell in a well as a toddler when my parents were visiting Pakistan back in the ol' days. My mum was putting the washing up and her reaction was to alert the neighbours, and my dad's reaction (who was sitting and reading a paper) was to stand up and simply freeze in shock. Thanks dad.
2. As a kid I got stuck in the freezer while playing hide and seek with the cousins, they couldn't find me for hours - eventually it was mum to the rescue. Go mum.
3. When I was about 10, this one time my cousins came over and they wanted to go exploring in the two football and cricket fields we have nearby. On the outskirts of the cricket field they decided to go through the woods (which meet-up with a river) and little did we know there were some guys following us.
By the time we found out it was too late because they were chasing us! Eventually they got hold of us and at first they were talking to us, then from nowhere they started beating the crap of my elder two cousins, then the one older than me. When they got to me one of 'em said "ah he's a kid, leave him" and that's it, they went. So I had just watched 3 of my cousins get the shite kicked out of 'em, not a nice thing to witness.
We troddled home and promised each other we wouldn't tell a soul ...
4. As a teenager I used a pellet gun to break a few mosque windows only to watch them being replaced the next day. All four windows. (It's not something I'm proud of)
5. I fell off a moving bus on the way back home from high school. When I got home the rest of the family was eating, and dad says to me
"Why you late?"
"I fell off a bus" was my reply.
They started bawling in laughter (and nearly choking), I turned around to show them the back of my uniform all covered in mud. Shocked they were, shocked - I tells ya.
Thats 5 done for me so I'm gonna have to stop there. I've never done this before so I'm not sure what the response is gonna be, anyway I tag my sisters Boba, and Feesa, and from the blogosphere I tag Munnie, Mrs Tigerchick, Mohsin, Miss Snaz, and Sobi.
If anyone else wants to participate please feel free, I wouldv'e tagged more but like I've said I don't know what the response is gonna be.
