What was quite good fun was writing down three little-known facts about ourselves, having them all read out, and guessing whose belonged to whom. I wrote the following :
1. A recurring nightmare I used to have.
2. My porn name is Spitz Williams.
3. I once had a set of handcuffs confiscated at Dublin airport.
I was told by one of the reporters that she had guessed me for no less than four of her answers (there were about fifteen of us); which led me to believe that people must take me for some kind of degenerate. One of the people's facts was 'When I was being potty trained, whenever my mother went to answer the door or the phone, I would eat my own excrement'. I do hope no-one chose me for that one.

Go archetypal Saturday night!
