Well, I've just had a weird experience. Contrary to popular belief, Euan didn't die the other day. He just floated into a sewage treatment plant and they recycled him back to us. Hurray for us. I think as a punishment we should all post "You liar" on his Facebook wall.
Anyway, that's not the weird experience; this is. I walked into the flat and Euan was playing a Disney game (My Heart is a Kingdom) on the PS2. The game is like Last Fantasy, but with Disney characters. He's been playing it for a few days now and although the AI is smarter than him (and more handsome and with more friends and nice people), he really likes it.
So yeah, he was fighting with the typical Disney characters and all of a sudden just said; "AHHHH, I hate Dappy Duck and Michael Mouse". I asked him if he meant "Daffy and Mickey" and he said; "It's a Sunday, they use their Christian names on a Sunday"
I don't even know what to say to that. Maybe he's right (he's not), but I never knew they ever used their posh, real names.
I guess it's because he wasn't allowed to watch Disney as a child. His parents refused to buy him the Disney tapes, because they said Disney was evil and would make him really violent. They knew if it didn't do that, it'd make him want to be a Disney princess. With hindsight, they were right, I suppose, but it's quite strict. Niall, his brother, was allowed to watch whatever he wanted as a child though.
I remember going to their house as a three year old - Niall was 1 and watching Blade Runner and Euan was just doing Bible studies... it's weird when siblings are brought up different (like the Queen and her spastic twin) but why not.
