Oh I’d only waste it

I once met Liverpool and Scotland defender Steve Nicol at the urinals in the gents at Lilleshall Hall, Shropshire. It was during the England v W Germany Italia 90 semi in the break between extra time and penalties. He was the calmest man in the place.

Did you quote Naked Gun at her?

Some years ago, I was in Chicago, and walked into a busy lift in my hotel. Most people got out on the second floor, leaving me with a tall, middle-aged man who looked a lot like Bill Murray. I wasn’t sure though, so I turned to him and asked ‘who was the best footballer you ever saw?’. As the doors shut he grabbed me in a headlock, drilled the knuckle of the middle finger of his right hand into my temple, smiled to himself and said ‘Paul Scholes of Manchester. And NOBODY’S going to believe this happened!’ Then the doors opened and he walked off.

On Thursday morning at approx 4.48 am (I checked my clock after the incident) someone opened my bedroom door cautiously and switched on the main light. I was in bed, but the way my room is laid out, a tall chest of drawers completely blocks the view to the door. As this person stood at the threshold, I said, “what the fuck?” They then retreated and closed the door, but left the light on. The sound of another door being opened and closed was apparent in the hallway… whether it sounded more like the front door or another bedroom door I cannot remember.

I got out of bed in a huff and switched the light off. Then went back to bed very confused, but in a state of fair alertness.

I have quizzed 2 out of 5 housemates about this incident and I am still at a loss to explain who it was.

Today I took the lock to my bedroom door to get a new key cut.

On the first night after one of my friends had just moved into a new shared house someone walked into her room in the middle of the night. He apologised profusely, explained he was one of Rob’s mates and went on his way. Turned out he was a burglar and he stole everyone’s laptop but hers.

Do any of them sleep walk? I once freaked out a then housemate by walking into the kitchen when she was there late one night. She thought I’d come down to ask her to be quiet, but apparently I just walked to the back door, turned round, and went back upstairs again. Had absolutely no memory of this when she asked me about it the next day.

This is proper horror movie stuff

shudder

I was also covered in blood and holding an axe, admittedly.

You’ve clearly not seen many horror films.

My friend once offered a burglar a cup of tea, assuming that he was the bloke her housemate had brought back the night before. He wasn’t.

Wo.

What happened then?

My friend had heard him in her housemate’s room, knocked and offered him a cuppa. He looked a bit surprised and said no thanks so she left him to it and went out.

It was only when the housemate got home and found some of her stuff missing that it emerged that the bloke wasn’t the one she’d heard her with the night before, but a different one who’d climbed in the open window.

Fuuuuck. On the one hand, so frustrating she didn’t twig, but on the other hand, at least nothing worse happened!

Yeah, pretty scary in retrospect! I guess the burglar wasn’t expecting to be offered a hot beverage, must have thrown him off a bit. He must have thought my friend had lost the plot.

That’s unreal! They’re a nice family actually. I’ve been on the piss with her granddaughter, Riley Keough, before. Lisa Marie Presley is friends with a mate’s parents and stays with them occasionally.
