» Unexpected Good Fortune

I was 8..
Aged 8, me and my dad were in a pub and we needed the bathroom at the same point in time.

So we proceeded to the bathroom and to the urinal ignoring the strange man there.

Just as i was beginning to let fly, the strange man spoke to me "Hi" he said.

I looked at my dad, confused. Then back at the strange man "Um... hi?" The man quickly said back "You shouldn't talk to strangers!" This confused me as obviously he was a stranger and he was talking to me..

He continued "But luckily I'm a good stranger! I own a whole string of retaurants and am very rich." He then proceeded to pull out the FATTEST wod of cash you have ever seen, peel off a 20 pound note and hand it to me, then peel off another and hand it to my dad.

"Now you can put that in a bank account and when you're older, you can open your own chain of restaurants" he said. Staring in disbelief at the most money i'd ever had in my life i thanked the strange rich man and promised to take his advice.

I spent it all the next day on sweets.

Ignore all those stories you hear about creepy peados, some random guy gave me 20 quid! Not the luckiest thing that's happened to me but comes close.

Length etc

» Messing with the Dark Side

Birthday party
We were bored.. we decided the best thing to do was carefully set out an oudija board.

Tension built as we set it up piece by piece, including numbers letters and "yes" and "no" pieces in case the spirit was too lazy to choose the individual letters.

We set up a glass in the middle of these perfectly set up pieces of paper, and each of us places a finger on the glass.

We heard a noise, could this be a sign? was a spirit really about to join us? would we now be connecting with someone from "the other side" ? We were all scared at what this strange noise could be

Oli sneezed, scattering all the pieces of our careful work all over the floor.

Kinda gave up on the dark side after that.

» Sleepwalking

Kinda sleepwalking
After a night out on the piss, me and a mate trekked back to my house. We were very heavily intoxicated and it took 3 times as long as it should have as we had to prop each other up and he had to lie down every now and then.

I note at this point that i've never seen him this bad before, usually he just gets a little bit leary, not really coming close to passing out or anything like that but it was alright we managed to get home and we both immediately fell asleep. I must also mention at this point that my friend pisses like a racehorse every few hours or so.

So at some early point in the morning im woken up by some mumbling and banging noises, as my eyes adjust to the darkness, i see my friend, walking into my window, bouncing off, and then attempting to walk back into it.

I enquire as to what he is doing and he mutters something about going to the bathroom, i point him in the direction of the door and after setlling back to sleep he cries out "..i can't open it" so i get up, open the door and he SHOOTS out.. however, he went into the wrong room, he went into the spare room next to the toilet.. i hear "this isn't the bathroom" but instead of merely walking next door, he RUNS all the way down the stairs and out the front door.

Swearing under my breath, i go to check on him, and find him taking a piss on the road out the front of my house.

After going back to sleep im woken up 3 hours later to have the EXACT SAME PROCESS repeated, except this time i made sure he found the toilet ok.. sigh.

sorry about the length.. and lack of relevance

» Teenage Parties

For my first and last party
I had it all planned for a week or more beforehand, I had borrowed the £200 speakers off my friend Dave, I had collected £100 for booze that would be available at my actual house but told most people to bring their own..

The party began about 7 with about 20 people there, by 9 that number had doubled and by this time everyone was a little bit intoxicated, this is where things started to go a little crazy. The lampshade from the self constructed "dance room" was ripped down and subsequently worn as a hat. My bin which was half-arsedly used to put some of the bottles in was thrown outof the back window into my garden. Floorboards went missing. The banisters were coming away from the stairs.

A girl got to the party and immediately passed out and slept in a room by herself for 4 hours missing most of the party. In the morning her knickers were missing.

In the bathroom, a chunk of enamel was missing from the sink and a girl was passed out in the bath... with a colander on her head.

In my bedroom i didn't want anyone going in so i just had a couple of friends in there talking, and if anyone tried to come in they would yell "WE'RE HAVING SEX!".. most people left pretty quickly.

Upstairs someone decided to throw everything out of one of the rooms into the garden. Instead of manually going into the garden and bring stuff up.. i got one of my friends to stand in the garden and throw it all back up neighbours watching would have been amazed to see chairs, planks of wood and a buddha statue flying up to the top floor window with a hardly sober guy catching.

There were footprints on the tables from the dancing.. i was leaning against the wall with some girl, and she left and another girl took her place.. apparently i didnt even notice.

The kitchen floor changed colour from all the spillages, just walking in there would cause you to fall straight on your ass.

Crazy times, apologies for the (incredibly long) length
