Hi, Zoe.
It's Jenny here from Newport.
Your episode on childhood shame stirred me to share an experience which flashes through my mind a few times a year and still makes me cringe 35 years later.
I spent my childhood growing up in Northern Ireland, and I attended the same school as Gary Lightbody, and we were in the school choir together.
One year, when I was about eight or nine, we had a school concert.
It was quite a big event.
The choir was singing, the orchestra were performing, and the teacher was there recording a video to sell copies and raise school funds.
I'd been feeling unwell and I told my mum who just put it down to stage fright and sent me off to sing my heart out.
I was a tall kid and I had a lovely spot on the back row of the choir where I could see everyone and everyone could see me.
And midway through a song, my aunt turned to my mum and said, she doesn't look well.
Just as I projectile vomited over four rows of choir kids as well as the school orchestra.
