I once caused a family episode at a Halloween party when I took a cigarette from my older sister and took a couple of puffs. My mum hit the roof, and of course blamed my sister.

I was 30 years old. (No joke).
At the age of 14 my friend jokingly asked my father for a ‘drag of his fag’! He was bemused and asked me if I smoked too. Yes, was my reply. So he gave us a cigarette to share and from then on I was allowed to smoke my silly head off in the home, to the extent that I constantly coughed and gave it up 7 years later following the advice of my GP.

That's not what your friend meant. I don't think your father understood, either.

My older brother made me go to the first Star Wars movie and I slept through most of it. I didn't see any of the others. I'm not a real big sci-fi fan I guess.

The Ice-buvket challenge, to raise awareness for ALS.

There are many, many of us out here, hidden in the undergrowth, lurking in the woodwork. It's time we stand up and make ourselves known.

Considering you were my age in the 1970's I imagine plenty has passed you by...

Including "author's rights"...

How dare you change an author's name before presenting a story...

You make me puke! 🤮

I was accused of being you.

Which actually means they think you are me since they consider me the bad one.
