I will go first let me know if you think it’s true or false and come up with your own lie/truth.

Here goes….

My mother had an affair with a Rolling Stone in 1961.

Possibly biglouis ……just possibly ?

I think that she may have mentioned it on one of the Ask a Question threads 🤔
Anyway, I’m saying a definite yes.

An apt one as it's British Grand Prix weekend: I used to work as a welder for McLaren.

my father made us leave the theatre because laurence olivier swore true or lie

MrsKen33 Fri 07-Jul-23 12:39:39

Yes sally45 my father would have .

I did part time work as a nude model when I was an art student. True or false?

biglouis Fri 07-Jul-23 12:55:32

Yes - its completely true. I was Yvonne the Stern Leather Mistress, I gave all my clients dogs names (gyp, towser etc) and made them say "woof woof mistress". One day another person answered a call from one of my customers who said "Its Rex to speak to his mistress". Such fun.

I'm sure you did, MrsKen33

My friend and I once got chatted up at the bar at a Marmalade gig by a group of older blokes who we thought were well passed our age group so we gave them the slip. Turned out they WERE the group Marmalade! Well, when you are 18 anyone is old.

I can eat a whole packet of ginger biscuits in an hour with two cups of dipping coffee.
Oink oink

LauraNorderr Fri 07-Jul-23 14:37:02

I believe you MrsKen, I would have done too but was never asked.
I believe you Sally, my Dad would have done the same.

LauraNorderr Fri 07-Jul-23 14:39:45

LRavenscroft, I have believe you, you have written it so that we can’t help but believe. So unless you are Bob Mortimer II I’m saying true.

MrsKen33 Fri 07-Jul-23 15:27:44

Sorry ladies, I never did. I was much to shy. Might do it now though 🤭

*LRavenscroft*, I have believe you, you have written it so that we can’t help but believe. So unless you are Bob Mortimer II I’m saying true.

Yes, it's true. I got carried away!

LauraNorderr Fri 07-Jul-23 19:20:48

Great idea for a thread Sago, you do come up with some good ones.
Now that is true.

Frog lady, Freddy Frog or Mr Toad maybe but Donald Duck not too sure

It's true! Uncle Don was born before Walt Disney created Donald Duck. There's a lovely gravestone in Bishop Burton's graveyard to Donald Duck.

Thank you, I think my ideas may be running dry though!

I stood on Sammy Davis' toe in a lift in the King Edward Sheraton Hotel in NY in the mid seventies.

LauraNorderr Fri 07-Jul-23 21:37:47

Louella are you responsible for ruining or enhancing his tap dancing.
I don’t think I believe that. Sorry.
