What is the most dangerous thing you have ever done?

[floo]

As I mentioned on a number of occasions some of the crazy things I have done in my life, and still do, which could have ended in my demise.

I guess kicking around a live grenade I found in our attic, when I was 10, was the most dangerous thing I have done, although other things have come close.

I am sure other posters have tales to tell.

Asking a Glasgow barman for a gin and tonic with a slice of lemon, not too much ice.

Not brave, foolhardy.

Me Tarzan, you Sane.

See, if you were to do that now the only danger would be dropping the list of boutique gins on your foot.

Me Tarzan, you Sane.

Applause. That night was very not Sane, and I Nearly didn't make it out

We once drank some illegal alcohol in Goa. Their local stuff is called "Cashew Feni". Firewater of the most despicable sort. This was a relatives illegal brew. We were fine except for a sore stomach for a couple of days.

However during our stay there was an article in the local papers about how some illegal brews were making people go blind.

I didn't do that again.

If you ever make it to Glasgow, Trent, I have a jar of moonshine that some guests from Texas brought me. It's hidden at the back of the drinks cabinet.

I don't get that one?

Still trying to tempt me up into wet weather and impenetrable accents, eh? And don't forget the scary second cousins!

Could be made worse though - by confessing you came from Coatbridge.

if you make it, and join the two Gs and me then the accents are fine for at least the first three pints.

There was much asking about what foot did Tarzan kick with.

Gonnagle will surely know the answer to that conundrum.

As I remember one of the comments, expletives removed for the sake of avoiding repetitive strain injury, was 'Of course Tarzan's a Pape, he was brought up by monkeys'

For my 60th birthday in 2010 I wanted to swim with sharks at an aquarium not too far from us, which has that facility. My darling family were concerned I might give the poor sharks indigestion! My doctor scuppered the idea as I have a problem with my left ear, which would not be helped by swimming under water.

Remember as a young idiot (rather than being in my present state of middle-aged idiocy) when undertaking a walking tour of the Isles, drinking what purported to be whisky - but wasn't - from the hand of an elder of the Free Kirk - on Lewis on the Sabbath. I then realised the Lewisian Sabbath had surprisingly little to do with the religious concept of rst, and more the secular concept of comatose with a dendancy to vomit.

Grace,

I disagree with my wife once, talk about walking the line.

Ah, the old philosophical conundrum: If a man alone in a forest contradicts his wife, is he still wrong?

Welcome to this mb by the way.

Floo - re trying to order a G&T: Try Frankie Boyle's joke about the Englishman in Glasgow trying to order a lager and lime and receiving the dusty reply, "We dinnae do cocktails..."

...just as they don't do poached eggs in Liverpool!

Well Grace, now I know you're not a woman! I thought you were when I looked in earlier.  Not to worry, people thought I was a bloke when I joined R&E a year ago.
