I can do a backflip and I can mimic most voices I hear. The mimicking is a special talent, according to my MH nurse. I used to have an almost photographic memory but recently I lost it, my memory is patchy now.
I can close my ears from the inside to deaden sound.
I can close my nose from the inside to eradicate smells.
I can have a nosebleed out of my eye (luckily only once!).
I have premonitions.
I am sometimes telepathic.
I can remember the lyrics of many songs.
Yes, me too - since I was a small child. I can also make up rhymes about anything, spontaneously.
Should've been a rapper maybe!

I can rhyme quickly too.
Do you write poetry?
Sure - he did his own thing, my brother, rarely understood by anybody. Like the time he spent the entire evening of his birthday carving the bannisters into exciting new forms... on that occasion he was compelled to sand it all down when he was discovered, which led to a major meltdown...
On this occasion he wanted his own bonfire, it being Bonfire Night, so - of course, telling nobody of his plans because he was non-verbal - he went off into the garden and built one... but wait! What about a Guy to burn? Ah yes! Sister's toys!
What? Matches won't set fire to them? But wait! There's paraffin in the shed!
Yes! Much better!
And that was the end of the dolphin, the soft toy rabbit, and a couple of miniature dolls.
The latter I didn't care about, since I had zero interest in dolls, but I wasn't entirely happy about the soft toys.
And that's the story!

Nice prize!

Funny! Do you intend to tell that story?!
Pegg said:I love your sunflowers.
Thank you
Thanks Debbie, that's nice of you to say
You take lovely photos, I love your sunflowers.
I was a bit confused by the whole thing...
But part of the prize was a soft toy dolphin, which I did like. We were the best of friends.
That's another story though!
Pegg said:My poem was about the sea. I won a prize for it eventually... once a bunch of adults had asked me where I'd read it!
What an achievement!
Pegg said:They ask you to do something, you do it, then they don't believe you actually did it!
I agree.
You are very talented, both with words and images.
I do wonder what people want sometimes! They ask you to do something, you do it, then they don't believe you actually did it!
It's bonkers.

Pegg said:Do you also write poetry?
Yes and from a similarly young age.
I wrote a short story in my senior school and the teacher didn't believe I had written it.
I do, since I was seven. I remember this because it led to a big fuss, the first time I wrote a poem. I didn't know what a poem was, teacher explained, I did it, nobody believed I'd written it myself.
It was very confusing.
