The odd one out quiz

Hopping on the bandwagon alongside Rachel Fox, and Titus the dog, here's my list of ten random facts about me, one of which is a lie. Over to you to sort fact from fiction.

1. I once recieved a letter from George Bush Senior.

2. I was backing dancer for a scene in a Bollywood film.

3. I had a recurring dream about scary parrots as a child.

4. I was offered a job on the statue of liberty, but didn't take it.

5. I once had a job breeding fruit flies.

6. I once had a job making cardboard boxes.

7. My nickname as a child was Sid Vicious.

8. I once attended the Eurovision song contest.

9. I was a member of the "Caring and Sharing Association" in my teens.

10. I had a PE note for several years running which excused me from PE because of a fictional
verruca.

They all look feasible. I'd say the sid vicious one.

Rachel Fox said...

Someone beat me to it! I was going to go for number 2 and the Bollywood.

I love the fictional verruca. It would be a great name for what...a book, a film, a pub..?

Keep guessing...

Dominic Rivron said...

In for a penny, in for a pound. I go for number 10.

Totalfeckineejit said...

Okay, it's definitely the Bush letter.Everyone knows he can't write.
Can I have my prize now?

Domestic Oub said...

I'm with TFE on this one.

I remember you doing the Bollywood thing.

Fruit flies? defo

Sid Vicious - I can see it...

Veruca, cunning master plan only The Bagnall could come up with..

Niamh B said...

Nope, and Oub - my brother-in-law will be dissappointed that you were paying so little attention to his speech at my wedding, where the story of that letter was told!

Rachel Fox said...

OK, well then if we're all wrong I'm going for 4.

Niamh B said...

Another incorrect guess....

Domestic Oub said...

No offense to both brothers-in-law and both of their speeches... but after the first ten minutes of taking the piss out of your husband, I obviously tuned out! lol! Sorry.

Totalfeckineejit said...

Ok so Doub remembers (2) Bollywood, the letter (1) mentioned at your wedding, Rachel's no (4) is out,I remember cardboard box factory (6) Dominic was (10)Uisce was Sid V (7)

So that leaves :
A)scary parrot dream
B)Fruit fly breeding
C)Eurovision attendance
D)Caring sharing teenager

Which all means the answer must be Scary parrots.

Elementary , my dear Watson!

scary parrots.. hhhmmm.. there must be something freudian about that! :-)

Matt Bolton said...

Ireland won many, many Eurovisions so I think that is quite likely. I am going for the "Caring sharing teenager" one

Niamh B said...

Ah TFE & Watercats, ye're too smart by half - was hoping to get at least a week out of that! Will post up the shortened stories of the others tomorrow. Thank you for playing.

Domestic Oub said...

Okay, your turn, I've done me own list...
