    @Tori_Scope if I was half Canadian I’d be in Canada asap!

    I've got citizenship so it's very tempting @leeCal!

    Half Canadian?! @Tori_Scope Have you ever visited Canada?

    I have a few times @Cher_Scope! We used to go to see my grandparents occasionally when I was younger. I haven't been in many years though :( It's amazing there, I'd definitely recommend going if you ever get the chance. 

    I'd love to go back as it's such a big country and I've 'only' (very grateful) seen a small part of it.

    G'day @leeCal.  You gonna throw a shrimp on the Barbie... :D 

    Also @Tori_Scope I'd love to visit Canada too.  Their Prime Minister is amazing and the scenery isn't bad either.

    Ooooh another thing you'd never know to look at me, but

    I was once baby Jesus in the school nativity.

    Love this thread!

    It's not my first choice, but I do love quite a lot of rock music. 

    *Thanks to my parents music taste!

    @Chloe_Scope
    Great choice :) 

    You'd never know it to look at me, but I've only recently learnt that the "beans" word on a tin of Heinz Beanz is spelt with a "Z" instead of an "S"

    Blew my mind

    But although I cant drive, after having a couple of lessons I decided it would be good fun to take part in banger racing...

    It was very good fun...before being the anxious, depressed, scared of life misog I am now. ..?

    That must have been amazing @Cress
    and I should think you learned to drive quicker than taking lessons ??

    @Ross_Scope, you've just blown my mind!

    You'd never know it to look at me that I seem unable to keep a plant alive!  :D

    @Chloe_Scope...I had a relative admire some flowers and asking if they were real...I pointed out that you could tell the real ones as they'd be the dead ones...lol
