Would I Tell a Lie?

Published on by Margaret
Well, only because Kay at My Random Acts of Reading blog has given me an award that’s known as the Bald Faced Liar…whoops….”Creative Writer” award. Now I have to list up to seven things about myself, six of them lies and one absolutely true.

So, here are seven things about me. Six of them are not quite true, although they might contain some truth, and only one is absolutely true. Can you guess which one is true? I’ll reveal the answer in a few days.

  1. I can play the piano – I passed Grade 5 with merit.
  2. I can speak Welsh – my Taid (grandfather) taught me.
  3. I have won prizes for my flower arrangements, my mother-in-law taught me.
  4. I’ve been to the top of the Eiffel Tower, when I was staying with my French penfriend.
  5. I had dancing lessons from an early age and have danced the French Can-Can on stage.
  6. I used to love diving and learnt to scuba dive on holiday in Cyprus.
  7. My Great Great Uncle was Frederic, Lord Leighton, a Victorian painter and sculptor.

I’ve seen this meme on many blogs, but if you haven’t done it and fancy having a go please consider yourself nominated.

Soon I’ll be posting another meme about me  – the Kreative Writer Award – listing unknown, but all true facts about me.

  1. Ah, Margaret, how lovely! I’m having a good time with these “tall tales” that many bloggers are inventing. Now let’s see. I guess that #5 is true. The question would be what was your costume when you danced the Can-Can? ;-)

    Thanks for playing and I’ll check back to see when the truth is told!

  2. You are so very good at this, trying to envolve you family members as proof of your tales that I would not know which one is real. I would not play poker with you. tee hee hee. Can’t wait for the truth to be told.

  5. I would be totally impressed that you could really speak Welsh. My dad was from Wales, but never felt we needed to learn the lanugage because we lived in the US where no one spoke it. Of course, knowing taid means grandfather isn’t really proof, is it?
