My father's been clearing out some old paperwork, and found, among other things, some of my old school reports (could do better!) and the report on a careers guidance test thingy that my school laid on for us a year or so before O-levels.  This was based on a combination of aptitude and personality tests.  So I had a skim through it to see where I'd been going wrong all these years, and learnt:

You are interested in outdoor and physical fields - this may be reflecting a current liking for sport. 

WTF?  I never, ever, enjoyed PE lessons, apart from swimming, and wasn't much good even at that!

Naturally it must have been an entirely reliable, positively oracular, set of results - after all, it said (repeatedly) that I was highly intelligent, and also says, right at the front, "This report has been prepared by computer".  But I do wonder where on earth they got the idea that I was sporty from.

It goes without saying, that when conducting important experiments in low-temperature chemistry such as the making of apricot ice-cream (to find out if it's as good as last time, of course!), to clean all equipment used thoroughly afterwards.

One very effective way of cleaning the remains of the apricot puree out of the food processor is to whizz it up with a glass of cold mild, then drink the resulting apricot milkshake.

Just thought you'd like to know.
