    With Cougar, we presume?

    Ah yes, I remember him. I had to tell him an increasingly elaborate series of lies about myself, culminating with saying as well as a TV presenter I was an astronaut for the European Space Agency. It had the opposite effect, at the end of the night he invited me back to his place for “gaming,” I agreed so long as I could send my security team round to sweep the place and install 8-bit consoles. He told me that was absolutely fine. I said I’d be right back, then ran for the hills.

    I won a BMX contest when I was five.

    At the time, I had never before ridden a BMX.

    Sadly, my parents failed to recognise my obvious talent, and bought me a trumpet.

    This is clearly not true.
    In that situation, Cougar wouldn’t have been able to resist saying “Ok Steve, sounds Mega”*

    *Yeah, I know the Mega Drive was 16 bit and so does Cougar, but he’d have said it anyway**
