Spot the lie (friendly competition)

[Clifftop]

I'll go for No 4 then, just to make up the numbers.

 

It seems it's not a popular game, and everyone involved has had at least one go, some three! So I'll bow out after this one, it's hopeless with just the same half dozen all the time.

John.

 

 

got to agree with that.

[gozzer]

Right, I've had a think, and have to write it down quick, 'cos i'm liable to forget.

 

 

As it's my last, I'll make it a quick and easy one.

 

While fishing, I have caught the following;

 

1. A Hat?

 

2. A Bat?

 

3. A Rat?

 

4. A Cat?

 

Which is the lie?

 

Over to you.

 

 

John.

I'll say number 2 is the lie, because a bat is the hardest to catch from all of those choices. Besides That, it's my favorite animal.

I think I remember you saying that you caught a bat once when casting out a line, so I'll go for number 4....

The Rat it has to be a rat

[Clifftop]

Drat-the bat-cat & rat have gone so i'll have the hat and hope its not a hat trick.

[gozzer]

Well folks, here's the answers.

 

No1. Several hats, in fact. One of which was my own. It had been hooked, and cast in by a 'newbie' I'd taken fishing. I had to cast over it and retrieve it, I did first cast!

 

No2. I once hit a bat with my rod, while casting out, during an evening session, sending it spinning into the river I didn't catch it though.

 

No3. At one place I fish, you have to put you landing net into the water because of lack of room on the bank. While landing a bream, I got the fish into my landing net, and lifted it. I was surprised to see a rat along side it. It must have been in the net before, or passing, and I timed it just right.

 

No4. I think I've told this before, but, while fishing for perch on my local canal, I hooked, what I at first, thought was a large fish. It moved slowly to the side, in the flow from a warm water outlet. When I got it into the side I saw it was a sack. Upon cutting it open I found some kittens that have been 'disposed' of, the smell nearly had me falling in.

 

Sorry for bashing your favourite animal Patty, but it's your go.

 

John.

[Patrizia]

You're forgiven, Gozzer. You didn't mean to bash the bat. I must think now a little bit, give me a few minutes.

[Patrizia]

Here it goes, fellas.

 

1. I once was in Rumania, visiting castle dracula, together with my best friend, and we got locked in over night. That was the most frightening night of my life.

 

2. While I was living in Louisiana, a poisoned snake – a garden snake - fell from a tree, under which I was sitting, in my lap. I jumped up and run away. I was lucky that it didn’t bite my.

 

3. While I was driving on a motorway in Los Angeles, with a big cadillac, the hood of the car flew up and bend over my windscreen, driving 70 miles per hour. I could manage to drive to the side of the road without an accident.

 

4. A few years ago I had a car crash braking my back.

 

Have fun spoting the lie.
