otis My older brother and his best mate (who later did time for football related violence and got a lifetime ban from Elland Rd) once found a long bit of rope, tied it around my waist and tried to make me abseil down from Tad viaduct. I managed to resist this but they then tied me to a post, put straw around my feet and set it on fire while dancing around me and singing OMD's Joan of Arc. I wasn't badly hurt or anything but my shoes were a bit melted.
Oh how we laugh about it now. Older brothers eh? The 80s were mental times.
