I possess a French-speaking business qualification, as well as a Mandarin Chinese certificate.
 
When I was younger, I used to watch Countdown whilst standing on my head, and play along in the same position as well.

What? You've never been on Ripsaw, or the Blade, or Hex, or Sub-Terra? (not sure if the last two are counted as flat rides). They make up more than half of the park :-\

I have been Hex, the rest no. I've not been back at Alton since 2010 so I can't really comment on Sub-Terra.
 
The only theme parks I've been to outside of the UK is Disneyland Paris and the major theme parks in Orlando (Disney World, Seaworld, Busch Gardens, Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure).

I really must start investing in some money and heading out into some theme parks in Europe... Germany and Italy for starters hehe! ;)
 
I disinfect my desk at work every single day with anti-bacterial wipes, including my phone and keyboard.

Every. single. morning.

Yet I'm not OCD at cleaning anything/anywhere else!
 
Along with a friend I invented the drink now know as Cheeky Vimto (blue WKD with port in) after drinking the bar dry of all drinks except these two at a wedding on a barge. I have no idea how it went from there to being known all over, I presume the barman took it with him and suggested it to customers as I never did it again until about a year later when it started to appear advertised in pubs.

This is entirely true yet no one ever believes me.

Mmmmmm

I first encountered it about 9 years ago going by the name purple ronnie but same 2 ingredients. Remember it well as I was dating the girl behind the bar lol

Now you mention it I want one!

You wanna try baby Guinness...
Tia Maria in a shot glass with baileys poured on top... If done correctly looks like a miniature Guinness hence the name!


Back on topic....
I once had a kit Kat with no wafer in the fingers!

Coke do same thing... I had a can that was practically flat upon opening... They sent me £5 of your next coke purchase. 60p for original purchase, a free call to customer services.... Not a bad return!
