That Domesday lie is fabulous. I would never have had the nerve. And the fact that it became part of your Permanent Record...I am in awe.

"Put on plates with bad grace and serve with ketchup and shouting."

Dios mio, this sentence sums up my childhood dinners. Where you there?

I ride a palomino horse that actually does take two jumps at a time and have a slipped disc as a result! All true, unfortunately... But I hope you do take up riding, would love to read horsey blogs from you!

Hi Laruca,

It's here! A wealth of bizarre information culled from British 10 year olds.

Hi, can you please tell me where you found this Domesday thing? I'm not British and have no idea what it is, but Boyfriend is and would have been about the right age. Would be awesome if I found his :D
Thanks x

The look on the Weepette's face says it all. The indignity! I hope you've kept the rabbit away from him. That would be too much.

Love your web of lies. It's all in the details. I particularly liked that he had a tendency to squash you against the wall.

Poor weepette. I have to say, he does wear it with a dignified air. Sort of like a skinny, canine Henry the Eighth with large ruff.

I like your made up story. I once wrote in my diary at school that we had gone to Disneyland in our summer holidays. Since there were five of us and my mum favoured us 'knowing our heritage', the furthest we would have gone was the highlands.

I love love loved THE FAMILY FANG. You may also like his first book, a collection of short stories, called TUNNELING TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH - inventive, funny, heartening.

Oh lord. I must post this to beat back the yuck of your Old El Paso travesty. Dice 1/4 to 1/2 an onion and cook a few minutes in a little oil on medium-low heat. Add the mince (beef or turkey) (bloody paper peeling optional). Add salt, pepper and cumin generously, stir to break up lumps. Cook til dead/brown. Serve with taco shells or tortillas, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, salsa and refried beans. Enjoy your tacos while avoiding the sight of your children eating theirs.

I am pleased by your canny sense of what details to use for verisimilitude in the midst of your horse lies. "Often he tris to squash me against the wall" is such a wonderful touch that, if I were your teacher and knew that you were lying, I would let it go.

Poor Oscar. Still, his indignity is our amusement, so it's got to be worth it - until you get the vet's bill, anyway.

Your first sentence describes exactly the reason I write something every day, however pointless and badly written.
