I've got a bit of a problem,
Nope not a murderous one!
More like....
I need a map and compass Just to find my way home from school. A journey which I've taken about 600 times a year (walking to and from)
Anyways this one time when I lost my map and compass, I got lost in the roughest part of Lichfield!
I'm not gonna lie I was quite scared, My friend, who I'd dragged on this walk, more so. Especially when she was the one who said
"don't let us end up on the Dimbles estate, you know where that stabbing was!"
Me: "nah don't worry we won't, I know where I'm going!"
2 hours later!
Friend: "I told you we shouldn't of gone this way, you know where your going Eh!"
Me: ......"Oh look a police car, that's lucky, lets flag it down and they'll lead us the right way back in to town!"
Yeah, I don't think luck had anything to with them being their as well...
So we hitched a ride with the pigs, at first we were like...OH SHIIIIIIIT!....but then came the awkwardness when they said
"So How long you been living in Lichfield?"
I wanted to lie, just a little abbreviation of the truth. To save my self the embarrassment of their laughs or incredulous stairs due to what I next said.
Instead I thought 'Ah who gives a shit!'
"At this moment of time 8 years, yeah I have a bad habit of gettin lost even in my own small home town, I need a map and compass just to travel from school to my house!"
They chuckled, but we did as well.
Anyways we got dropped off safely in town, and everything turned out ok.
It's laughable now, But only because I have a GPS and a SOS sign...Just incase something like this happens again....
(Based on a true story! yeah I think I should really get a GPS though for future incidents lol)
