The exact text message I received from my mate:
"Joe's just got all pissed and bought an 11,000 watt angle grinder off of Ebay. The kind used for cutting up boats!"

One summer day back when we were about 15,
...me and a couple of friends were out in the village next to us. Small place, but being paranoid as we were we were about half a mile into the nearby woods where we could smoke weed all afternoon without being disrupted.
It had just been raining, and my friend tried to find out what would happen if he chucked a big wet stick up at the pylon above our heads. Now I didn't know exactly what was going to happen, but I knew just how much electricity those things carry, so tried to warn him not to do it. The first couple of times the stick hit one of the wires and nothing happened. Then, he managed to throw it in such a way that it connected with two of the wires at once, shorting the pylon. All I can remember is hearing (literally) the loudest noise of my life, seeing a massive bolt of electricity heading for miles down towards Reading, and then the previously wet stick raining down on us as little bits of fire.
Obviously we shat it, and ran and ran until we were back in the village, only to find that we'd caused a major power cut. The next day the landlord of our local was replacing all of the bulbs outside his pub trying to figure out which ones had blown.
Lesson? Don't play with pylons...

Spooky
Apologies as I don't know anyone in this picture - apparently a friend of a friend etc.
The little girl in the picture was upset after apparently saying she didn't want to play with the other girl anymore as she was upsetting her. Thing is, there was no one else in the house.
Have a look closely towards the bottom of the picture, inbetween the adults' legs (so to speak)...

Back when I was about fifteen me and my friend would go to some lakes nearby to chill out and smoke cigarettes. We were sat on a bench just at the shore of one of the lakes smoking. My friend was a heavy smoker and all of a sudden coughed up a HUGE amount of 'lung butter' which he then spat into the lake. Cue hungry swan - which arrived and tucked into the phlegm and spent about five minutes trying to swallow it, probably one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen...

My friend Mike...
...Is so lazy that when he had to move out of his flat to another house, he paid rent on both places so he could spend a month moving, rather than just a day.
He didn't though - he only took a few bits and moved everything else at the end of that month anyway.
