A variation on an old one, perhaps, but a good one, nevertheless.

State three things [a "triple"] about yourself where only one of them is true.

Guess the previous poster's true auto-biographical statement and then offer your own triple.

I am fluent enough in Indonesian to be able to understand every single word in the national newspaper "Kompas". I haven't driven a car for 40 years. I posted as "STANG" before I started posting as "FMF [you heard it here first].

First, I hazard a guess that "I have met Queen Elizabeth ll" is true.

Then, my triple:

Between September and November 2021, I ate at least 600 boiled eggs. I have only worn socks once since March 2020. I almost never see Marmite here, but Vegemite is seen just about everwhere on account of the proximity of Australia.

I’ll venture that you walk around barefooted or in flipflops, so don’t wear socks.

My trio:

I have witnessed a NASA space shuttle launch on site.

I have walked across a live volcano two days before it erupted.

I have scuba dived off the coast of the Bahamas.

The eggs one was true.

You walked across a volcano.

Triple:

I have donated a kidney to a family member. I have eaten rice every single day since 1st January 2022. I was investigated for subversive activities in an Indonesian military zone in 1992.

I reckon Queen Liz attended Siberian autopsies.

My triple:

I ate dog during the lockdown, although it wasn't mine.

The rats we have here are often so big the cats want nothing to do with them.

I once looked into how to go about buying a giraffe [like Michael Jackson did] and I was put on the local sex offenders list.
