Oh man this is awesome, one day, I'm going to come over there and have a big ol' beer with you, stories like this make me like you more and more! :-).
One question though (you answered my other question in the bit about staying in the deep-end), would you do the same with your kids; do you have kids?
I know, that was two questions.
Wish I could give you an extra tip for this one, I'm still lolling :-)

Oh hell no. My Dad taught me how not to raise kids. Even though all the crazy stuff he did with us was fun, it was a life lesson of what not to do with children.
Yes I do. Our oldest daughter is living with us again and she overheard me telling her Mom that I wrote about this last night and we hear, "Whaaaaaat!?". I've never told any of them the crazy stuff my Dad had us doing when we were children, but she's old enough to handle it now, I think. :)
Thanks!
Awesome, you have to keep those ones back, I'm sure I'm going to drop some story on my daughter when she's all grown up to make her go whaaaaa....??? I hope so anyway :-D
