CONFESSIONS

1. "I never imagined during my school days in Sligo that one day I'd celebrate my 21st birthday in the Philippines! We partied into the early hours of the morning, I couldn't have asked for a better night!"
2. "Anything with feathers freaks me out. A bird flew into my house when I was twelve and I was really really scared. I would literally have a heart attack if that happened again."
3. "I was at a party once and spotted Liam Gallagher from Oasis. I was a massive Oasis fan at the time and really wanted to meet Liam. So, I approached him and tried to speak to him, but he just told me to fuck off in front of everyone! I know I was probably the 100th person who'd come up to him that evening, but it was really disappointing and embarrassing!"
4. "A long time ago, I really put my foot in it at this night club. I'd been there a while and I got chatting to this bloke from a record company. I'd been introduced to him as Tom and the whole night I was like 'Blah blah Tom, blah blah Tom....' We were getting on like a house on fire - at least I thought we were! It wasn't until he was on his way out that he said, 'By the way, my name's Frank!' I couldn't believe it! I was so embarrassed!"
5. "I get really bored when we stay in hotels so I play knick-knocks, which is when you knock on someone's door and run away. I knock on all of the doors in the corridor and run round the nearest corner or into the stairwell. It's quite entertaining, but dangerous. I got caught once and was threatened with being chucked out!"
6. "Before I was legally allowed a driving license, I used to drive my Dad's car up and down the driveway. One day my foot slipped on the brake and the car went smashing straight into the gate at the bottom of the drive! The car door was dented and it wouldn't open. I was really scared and then to make matters worse, I looked up and saw my younger brother running off to tell my parents! Luckily my Dad was pretty understanding. I still had to clean the house for months afterwards though!"
