    Default Confession

    They say confession is good for the soul.
    Here goes,................

    I cry almost, every week watching Britains Got Talent, every time I see someone with genuine talent. The boy who danced like Billy Elliot got me, the girl who sang Ave Maria, the boy who was bullied and sang opera....*blushes*

    Cannot stand those irritating child dance troupes....did that as a kid so I can comment....

    What confessions do the orgers have....nothing rude please....embarassing will do!
    Spring has sprung, the grass is ris', I wonder where the birdies is, the birdies is on d' wing, now thats absurd, everyone knows d' wing is on d' bird

    The first single (45rpm vinyl to the youth of today) I bought was Whispering Grass by the late Don Estelle and Windsor Davis.
    Don Estelle had a brilliant singing voice.
    A 1991 Gallup survey indicated that 49 percent of Americans didn't know that white bread is made from wheat.

    Many years ago I was walking to the pub and I found a very fat bank bag of money, maybe about £2000 or more in it. Up ahead of me, maybe 400 yards, was an elderly woman pushing her bike uphill so I caught up with her and asked if she had lost anything. She looked in her bike basket and said her moneybag had fallen out of it so I showed her the one I found which she had been able to describe. I walked along with her when I met my friend Angie who I was going to the pub with. I told Angie the story to which she said the old lady owned 5 houses and that was probably the rent money. I have to confess had I known that beforehand I would have kept the money.

    I will put my hands up and agree that Don Estelle had a lovely voice.

    I have to agree. Almost every Saturday he was in Basingstoke shopping mall selling his music, whilst singing live. Although not a fan of his music, the wee guy could fair belt out a song, a great voice.

    Many moons ago a friend in Inverness owned a guest house, her claim to fame was that Don Estelle stayed as a guest, I think he was appearing in Eden Court....

    Default confession

    If it's an 'embarressing confession' thread, then I too admit to crying at the tv. Usually the soaps, but I have cried at films too: ET, Watership down, even Harry Potter (The one with the tri-wizard tournament and the quite dishy young lad (who is way too young for me) was dead I broke my heart sitting in the cinema!!!). Perhaps the worst was wetting myself in primary school - but being very sneaky and gently turning my skirt around so it wet it all over!!!Teacher wouldn't let me go to the loo, so what was I meant to do? I was very young - it was P2 I think!

    If it's a 'naughty confession' thread - how long you got??? Think the last really sneaky and naughty thing was at a cafe with a mate. It was reasonably nice, so we decided to sit outside with our bowls of soup. My frind went back in to get salt or something, when I noticed a fly on the parasol, so I swiped it away. It landed in my friends soup (Scotch Broth btw), so I tried to fish it out with my finger, but only managed to push it further in. So I got her spoon and stirred it in! I then watched in great trepidation as she greedily spooned mouthful after mouthful in, and watched in fascinated horror as she ate the dead fly!!! OMG, it almost put me off my own soup! (Almost, but not quite lol). Have I told her? Not to this day have I said a word to her, but me and my other mates have a good laugh about it!!

    Years ago as an apprentice myself and a few mates used to go to the shops at lunchtime and one of the guys always took his bike so he could 'show-off' doing wheelies. I was sick of him, (mainly 'cos I was crap at doing wheelies), so before lunch one day I sneaked out and loosened his front wheel. As expected, he pulled his first wheely only for his front wheel to fall off, resulting in him landing forks first on the road then sliding off the seat to meet the handlebars. Oh how we laughed. To this day I never told anyone it was me that caused it.

    I used to work in Johnston's Bakery and one of my colleagues put aside a Jap cake for her tea-break saying no-one was to touch it. Well, that was all the ammo I needed-I had to have that cake. I sneaked into the despatch area where she had put it and ate it. I then thought I had better replace it with something similar so got a cookie cutter and filled it with lard, popped it out which I then rolled in coconut and put it where she left the cake. At tea-break she took one bite then started to gag on the lard as it congealed in her mouth. The look on her face and the other's sitting about was priceless, no-one but me knew what was wrong. I think the give-away was me rolling on the floor laughing.

    One afternnoon we got a parcel delivered and it had 'S' shaped polystyrene packaging inside it. I took a handful, dipped them in chocolate then sat them on a board in despatch, telling the despatch ladies that they were a new line called peppermint treats. Being busy I forgot about them until I went in next morning. I thought I had better ditch them just in case they got put down to our shop, and I discovered a few missing. One of the women said she ate them but thought they were "a bit chewy". She couldn't understand why I couldn't stop laughing, especially when I said she had better flush the loo extra hard to get rid of her waste.

    When at senior school we had an annual hockey match, staff versus the school team.
    Now I have to admit that I was responsible for sneaking into the secretariy's office and purloining the keys so that the headmaster could be locked into his study for the duration.
    As to who locked the chemistry master and the games mistress in the sports store cupboard I claim the 5th ammendment!

    I wet myself in class a few times in primary one or two, the teacher was scary and I was too scared to ask to get out to the toilet, of course then it meant she gave me a row and made me change into really horrible navy knickers that I remember smelling awful, maybe I peed them too

    Anyway the previous peeing confession reminded me of my most embarrassing childhood moment which my brothers and sister never let me forget for a lot of years lol

    I was going down the chute and my knickers got stuck and ripped and then I peed myself, probably laughing. I was prone to fits of giggles and peeing myself if I laughed too much. The rotten sods called me pee-rip for years after that I think constantly being called that for years was way more embarrassing than the actual incident though

    This one again involves a workmate in the bakery. I nipped outside one Saturday morning, about 5am, for a smoke and was standing next to Old Fred's car. For a joke I pinched one of his wheeltrims, intending on putting it back on the Monday. When I went in on the Monday Fred told me some thief nicked his wheeltrim and because Dunnet's didn't have a similar one he had to buy four new ones of a different design, costing him £50. Needless to say I kept quiet.

    One time, to another workmates car, I turned his rear number plate upside down, he drove it like that for a week before police stopped him and let him know. Luckily they didn't fine him. I never let on 'cos he is 6'4" and built like a privvy.

    I loaned my brothers boxed set of Beatles records to a girl I used to chat to on the CB, mainly 'cos I fancied her, but we fell out and I never got them back. He moved out around that time,(1982), and thought he lost them in the process of moving. I've never told him the truth and since he'll never be on here he'll never know.
