I spend so much of my time creating stories in my head. They are all so boring that when I then tell people them as if they were real they believe me. I often forget what is real and what isn't.
Making someone believe something isn't difficult once you believe it. I think that's what gives me the ability to lie so well, I don't even think I'm lying.
I once convinced a group of people I owned a canal barge and sailed it around the country. I can't even remember how it started, I think I was at the bar talking to someone and he said something the boat outside. I just started making stuff up and before I knew where I was, I was telling his mates these stories about the time I sailed the barge across to Ireland and how I wanted to go to France in the summer.
I'm even lying now, or am I? Yes I am. God this is rubbish.
When I was 17 I once said jokingly "I'm going to be the world's strongest man one day." Then I forgot it for 5 years and I just remembered it the other day.
1996 was 10 years ago. The year 2000 was ages away. The most worrying thing in life was getting your homework done.
