1) I once tried to steal Yehudi Menuhin’s violin. I was pretty determined but he kept holding it higher and higher out of my reach. He was totally onto me. He patted my head to placate me. Try this next time you encounter a thief.
2) I was reading at eighteen months.
3) I accidentally donned Great Western Rail uniform (a brand new coat my mum had got from a charity shop) and impersonated their staff on a train. This culminated in them taking me shopping for a replacement coat.
4) I only had one detention at school, but I jumped out the window and the headmaster (in his cap n tails) chased me and dragged me back inside to my cries of unhand me this instance.
5) I was playing grade eight cello pieces five months after starting the instrument.
