Another one of those wretched memes

What with it being the season of goodwill and what have you, I suppose I am honour bound to accept being tagged by Dizzy with another one of those gottverdommern memes. The pay off is that he sorts out the HTML problem which is vexing those readers using Internet Explorer.

So, without further ado, I ought to mull on 'the seven best things I've done this year', while excluding anything too salacious or anything that would make me retch if I read it elsewhere. Groan.

  • This blogging malarkey.
  • Appearing on 18 Doughty St.
  • Made money betting on a few events, the favourite being the 50 or so quid on West Ham / Arsenal.
  • Being taken for a native by confused tourists in Noo Yawk.
  • Continued to pursue my goal of getting away with it, and broadly succeeded.
  • Only falling asleep on the train and waking up at Brighton once.
  • Doing my bit to end the Red Terror in Croydon via the ballot box
If anyone wants to do this, feel free, but I'm not going to extend the curse.

Pity.

That was my decision too. Is christmas after all.

Gawd, these things spawn quickly.

C'mon C you can do better than this. Being mistaken for a local in the Big Apple should not be amongst the best 7 things anyone does in a day never mind a year.  



Blogger Croydonian said... 10:42 pm

On a number of occasions.... It put a smile on my face that week.  



Blogger Rigger Mortice said... 10:45 pm

so no shagging then  



Blogger Praguetory said... 10:45 pm

Yeah - you're holding back C

Note: "while excluding anything too salacious or anything that would make me retch if I read it elsewhere".

Gentlemen keep these things private, and I have good reason to believe that Ma Croydonian has had a snoop around here. So, no, I'm not saying a mumbling word.

Good for you, Croydonian. There is something very charming and gallant about a discreet man.  



Anonymous Anonymous said... 1:34 am

He's not discreet, he's just not getting any.....

Anonymous 1:34, just bursting with personality and wit - what a sad little comment.
