Same Same But Different
The key thing to remember with girl boy twins is that they cannot be identical. All other lies about twins are true.
Yes, we do sometimes know what the other twin is thinking and yes you can only tell us apart because Peter has kindly turned his face upside down.
Peter was born 8 minutes before Katy, on a Sunday, slightly before Jonathon Porritt chose a fountain pen as his luxury item on Desert Island Discs. Peter knows a lot about German history, dressing correctly, malt whisky & can play some notes on the saxophone.
Katy was about three inches taller than Peter until at aged 13 she was not. The other big difference was that Peter had more hair than her until at aged 13 he did not. Katy knows a lot about a small bit of Asia, grey jumpers, Agatha Christie adaptions & is hopeless at foreign languages & musical instruments.
Quick Fire Questions
Katy Asks Peter
Favourite City
P: London
What would your last meal be?
P: The oxtail stew that I made four years ago and can’t remember the recipe and it always tastes awful now
What activity do you do in a town centre when you’re by yourself?
P: Go to Gap
Only McDonalds (one item) or M&S bacon sandwich, forever. What do you chose?
P: Bacon and egg. Having one item at McDonalds is like watching live sport on an old laptop with bad internet connection.
For clothes, summer or winter?
P: Winter. I have knobbly knees. I try to deny it to myself but it’s true. And being a bit fat, layers make life easier. And Ed always looked cool in winter. He also looked cool in summer to be fair.
Secret passion that no-one/few know about?
P: I realised that I had made myself learn to skip four years ago. And today I did it again and realised I really enjoy it. But I’m still baffled why I made myself learn four years ago.
