Did you get a good look at my face when I grabbed your purse?

Re: Things People Said

I remember reading this somewhere it was from an insurance claim form......

I turned into the wrong drive by mistake when a tree jumped out and hit me. I don't have a tree there.

It tickled me....I can't remember the exact wording it was something like that though....I loved the idea of a tree able to jump

I seem to remember something like that one too - if you can't blame another person - blame an inanimate object !

Haha, that reminds me of something I did at school. I very rarely played truant but after one occasion doing so I forged a letter from my Dad which read...

"Barry couldn't come to school yesterday because I wasn't very well" ....

Needless to say I was well rewarded for my letter with four strokes of the cane from the headmaster and a good slippering from my dad... I never truanted again after that though...

Lol An easy - if costly - slip up to make

Now these days - the headmaster would get the sack and the chlld be whisked away from parents by social services !!

True Nan, but in those days we knew that we deserved what we got sometimes, and the lesson was certainly learnt...

Re: Things People Said

Not really funny this one but when a motorist was quizzed by police for leaving his dog in the car in hot weather, he said 'I parked the car in the shade - It's not my fault if the shade moved.'

The person did have a point - to some extent - but should have realized what would likely happen - and why take the dog anyway just to leave it in the car !
