Don't use a throwaway! What is something that you have never told anyone?
Mine is 'I love you'
Just kidding, here it is...
A number of years ago, a well known celebrity in my neck of the woods was on trial for possession of child pornography. I won't name them due to the nature of this post.
Their trial was being handled by my Mother's law firm and as a result of this, I regularly met the individual and I was even taken to their house where the grown ups would discuss the case.
During one of these visits, I was left upstairs to watch their big TV and they had this fancy doo dah called Satellite TV.
As the discussions were going on late into the night, some soft core porn was airing on the movie channels and I watched one. Since I was 14, I cracked one off, on their bed.
Over the course of their meetings, the accused taught me how to play piano on an old timey electric organ they had in their garage. The song they taught me was 'Heart & Soul', you will know it from the film 'Big'
Best video I could find of it if you want your memory jogged

It's been so long now since my time with the person in question and I am sad to say they were sent down for their crime and rightly so as the evidence against them was staggering.
Looking back, I think of all the seemingly bizarre things that have happened to me and this was one of the weirdest.
I would also have liked to see the headlines if it ever came out with regards to the atrocities I committed in that room, at that age, while they were discussing the case or that a 14 year old boy had been playing with his organ.
What's yours?
