Tell us about when you were very brave

[DickyC]

Yesterday i had a cup of coffee with no sugar. It was the first time for fifty years. And the last time was by accident. Yesterday i tried it deliberately and didn't suffer many ill effects.

I bought, cooked and ate liver, which was my nemesis as a child. It's okay.

I allowed someones' pet tarantula to walk across my hand, I don't like big spiders.

I changed a water pump on an Alfasud myself. I had asked for advice from a local specialist beforehand, which turned out to be to get my head examined.

I took on a big school bully in the changing rooms as a kid, I got some very good shots in and he didn't injure me at all. I've always been a softy BTW.

I went tandem paragliding off a mountain top in Turkey and got him to throw us around as much as he liked, he was only too pleased to oblige, although I don't know how I held back from spraying the town and beach with my breakfast before we landed.

I once had a paper cut, didn't cry at all.

[JulianPH]

I commented on the NPE thread once.

I once ventured the opinion that Oasis weren't that special

I also once ventured the opinion that Steven Gerrard was a second rate footballist at best the scouse fans on here were mad!

Olü Deniz?

"Do you like Extreme?" with a big grin?

That'll most likely be either Polat or Fevzi. ( The latter is the madder of the two. )

You are very brave indeed!


Takeoff from Babada? Summit is over 6000' and you land adjacent to the beach near the Cloud9 Bar for an ice cold Tuborg.

I paid a lot of money for a 15yo FIAT.

On purpose.

It's now 22.

Money well spent there, Peri.

It certainly doesn't owe you a lot today!

You are also very brave coming on here without your trousers.

It owes me 1.02 Euros ,fuel tank wasn't big enough to get the 40 Euros worth I'd put into the auto machine.

22? There must be a catch.

Had circumcision last Friday under local anaesthetic.

As I’m apparently “vascular” it took 2.5 hours instead of the advertised 45 minutes as the bleeding was hard to keep under control.

Women surgeons and assistants.

Felt everything. 😩

At an Australian beach I saw a couple of blokes get into trouble in the surf. At no thought to my personal safety I rushed to tell some other blokes who looked like they knew what they were doing. They paddled out on their surfboards and rescued the first set of blokes.

Risked a fart one morning many moons ago, after a heavy night on the Guinness, follwed by a Curry.

Never had the courage / stupidity to repeat.

You could have knotted you trouser legs and filled those.... Oh!
Sorry.

I once said I thought the EU was a jolly good thing.

I could have done that for you in a matter of seconds...
Yes, I am that brave!

( But I would have to be wearing kevlar gloves just in case I slipped.)

The things some people do for pleasure...

I requested a Vauxhall Mokka hire car.

It was good, I liked it.

Can't think why. Oasis were derivative,very over rated, and even worse..... Mancunians!
HTH
