4 Tell up to six outrageous lies about yourself, and at least one outrageous truth, or switch it around and tell six outrageous truths and one outrageous lie.
You'll have to guess which way round we answered!

OK - here goes:
1. We are both great auntie’s (outrageous at our age/s)

2. Mel (and hubby) have decided to have another baby 8 and a half years after their first (outrageous)

3. Our families have recently gotten into geo-caching and we have made our loved ones put their whole arms into large, dark, creepy crevices and spider-webs because we’re too scared. (outrageous)

4. Mel hates strawberries (truly outrageous)!

5. Our great-great grandparents were in Newgate Prison in 1881 for selling stolen goods (they were caught selling to a policeman – duh)! (OUTRAGEOUS)

6. We both used to be heavily into dance, gymnastics and youth theatre. A few years ago (at the age of 30+) Lou went back to “adult gymnastics” (which sounds wrong in itself) and almost broke her neck attempting an unaided back-flip. (outrageous)!

7. We both keep houses that could be show-homes! (the most outrageous)!!

5 Nominate seven creative writers who might be into doing this and Post links to the seven blogs you nominate and let the owners of those blogs know:-
