Hi,
this is a game whereby you tell of something you may have achieved or done which no one would guess just by looking at you of course.
The achievement can be great and impressive or trivial and funny anything you like.
my fist admission is
you’d never know it to look at me but... I once played bass guitar in a rock band!
(you can miss off ‘you’d never know it to look at me but ‘ if typing is hard for you ?)

In a rock band?! Now, you really are right. I would never have guessed. When and where?!
My turn, you'd never know it to look at me but...I have pulled a pint on the Rovers Return set.

The last gig I did was upstairs at Ronnie Scots in soho in the eighties. At that time the band I was in tended to play police style music, very cool ?
i was four stones lighter then ?. ?
(oh, the reason why I didn’t become famous is because...The Police did it far better! Lol)2 -
These are so interesting, it just shows you ...you would never know it!

Some really good answers here. I don’t really have any really impressive ones to add. I will try my best below.
You’d never know it to look at me but...I didn’t learn to drive till I was 23. I thought driving was boring and pointless! How wrong I was!!I used to have long hair but I’ve never attracted a van load of builders
I have driven an E Type Jag1 -
Wow, an E type jag @66Mustang, I was a passenger in one once and on acceleration the G force was brilliant.

They are beautiful cars apparently Enzo Ferrari said they are the most beautiful cars ever made! I will take your word on the acceleration as I was too scared to put my foot down haha!!1

Hi @leeCal - When I was nearly 17, I had met a Venetian young man the day before, when we were both just in our beachwear on the Lido di Jesolo. He didn't speak English, & I just knew a little Italian. He gave me to understand he'd like me to meet him the following afternoon in St. Mark's Square. I'd taken a friend in tow for safety, & It turned out he was a policeman. Once he saw me, both he & his friend chased us both around the square, with their swords drawn, much to the amusement of some bystanders. Honest!1

A lovely memory @chiarieds, thanks for sharing. ?0

You’d never know it to look at me but...I’ve been engaged for forty years! ?
