Max Power Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 That story reminds me of a famous local coal merchant, who arrived home from the pub one night in a taxi and found his key no longer fitted in his front door lock. He managed to climb through an open window to find a strange man in bed with his wife? After dragging the man out of bed and knocking seven shades out of him, he finds he'd broken into his next door neighbours house!!....True story, I read it in the Examiner.

joeyconcrete Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Another one... Whilst on a night out with an Australian mate, Chips n' Chese @ 3:30am, lost him - so I headed home. He was crashing at my place so I left the door unlocked for him. Got up in the morning, no sign of him. He called me at around 11am explaining how he lost me, got a taxi up and spotted my house (He wasn't massively familiar with the house at the time). He thanked me for leaving the Window wide open (PVC ones open right out) and he crashed on my couch. He couldn't sleep - so ended up getting a taxi home at 6am. He said the problem was my christmas tree lights kept blinking and my cat kept climbing all over him. Fair enough, but my tree was in a different room and more importantly, I didn't have a cat....

The Godfather of Manx House Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I spent a whole evening in Es Paradis in Ibiza with my mate Simon from Blackburn with him referring to me as "mentalist", much to my chagrin. I decided he'd gone too far when he said he'd introduce his "new, mentalist mate" to his buddies. So much so I accused him of having totally, irretrieviably losing the plot. I was however a little surprised to see another advancing Simon coming towards me and asking me "Where the fuck have you been all night ???!!" To which "new-Simon" replied: "I think your friend has mental health issues" In my defence, the guy was a total doppleganger. And I had somewhat over-partaken in local additives... It took a little while to live down... ...GOMH*... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
