19QOS19 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Before he deid and after he was well known, in 1986, Neale Cooper offered my wife her weeks wages if she would miss her work and spend the night with him! It would have been pretty impressive if he did it after he died certainly. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
free beer Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I once rented a flat in Torry where I could see Pittodrie from! More accurately, if I stood on my tip toes on the sink worktop and strained my neck, I could see the top of one of the floodlights 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnydun Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I was once number 3 on the Sniper Leader board for Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (GRAW) on the X-Box 360. Was also number 27 overall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velo army Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I once performed burlesque at the Edinburgh fringe. I've climbed a Munro (Liathach) naked except for ma boots. When I was mascot for the Jags (aged 5) the ref (David Syme) let me do the coin toss. I'd never tossed a coin in my life so wasn't sure what he meant. So I launched it across the pitch. The coin got lost and he fortunately had a spare. I didn't get to toss that one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also in the line up was a guy I knew as he supplied the knife 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At different times by the way - none of them were in Dundee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Some distant cousin of mine is a former Scotland manager. Unfortunately, he was one of the worst Scotland managers. I've never met him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Brazil Forever Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 If this topic was headed post-a-random-unusualinteresting fact-about-your family, my son bowled Brian Lara. Like me, he also supports the Blue Brazil. That makes two unusual facts! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Duszek Posted September 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2022 Aged 18, I knew the guys who produced Viz comic (they were friends of a flatmate of the American girl I was going out with). Six months later, a strip appeared about a tragic Scottish boy who was desperate to be American. the character even had my name. c***s. my whole family read Viz at the time. Luckily I think it only lasted one issue. c***s. 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH33 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I'm female. It seems there are still those on p&b that don't realise this. Confuses people in my work role as they get an email with my name on it and then I call them...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ylf Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Was in sharm el sheikh in Egypt years ago sitting in a cafe when the ground started rumbling thought it was some bomber or suchlike as they had attacks previously so I started to run but the cafe owner ran after me as I hadn’t paid and said it’s ok it’s only a slight earthquake [emoji23] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Mentioned this recently when I found it was unusual, but I can fluently mirror write (and also write the same sentence normally using the other hand at the same time). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I "starred" in a golf promo advert for Angus which aired briefly on STV around 2009ish. I almost hit Jim Jeffries with a wayward drive at Letham Grange golf course. My mate somehow dragged Kyle Benedictus out for a night out in Kirriemuir many years ago. He mostly spent it looking like "wtf is this place" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've known plenty of guys with impressive cleavage, so you can understand the confusion. Be quicker just to put "I'm a lady" in your signature, although I wouldn't envy you sorting through your DMs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 A simian or palmer crease is a straight line on the palm of your hand typically found on the left hand. Only 1.5% of the population have this, however I have it on both hands making me even more of a mutant freak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
