Today we were buying some chicken feed etc from a farm store, we were all in the car just ready to leave and the boys were arguing as usual in the back seat. I forgot I had my window wide open and said in a loud voice to the boys "stop that right now etc etc" and gave a woman walking back to her car a bit of a fright as she thought I was talking to her.... :rotfl:BSC #215/No.1 Jan 09 Club0

Ever since I dyed my hair blonde I've been having some spectacular blonde moments and today in Tesco was two absolutely superb examples!
I wheeled the trolley in and went to pick up a local paper. I put it in my trolley and as I was turning the trolley round I caught a bike that was on display and knocked it over, and that started a domino effect with the other bikes it was propped against! OH legged it, howling with laughter, leaving me standing there incredibly red faced as I tried my best to manouvre the trolley away. Just as I turned my back another bike fell over with a clang making an elderly gentleman who was collecting for charity nearby turn round in alarm!
And as that wasnt bad enough, I went to reach for a box of cereal on display and bought the whole lot crashing down!! Oh, the shame...!*The RK and FF fan club* #Family*Don’t Be Bitter- Glitter!* #LotsOfLove ‘Darling you’re my blood, you have my heartbeat’ Dad 20.02.200 -

The very next week Yellow Ted reappeared outside our house blackened and limp strapped to the front of our bin wagon!20p Savers Club #1020 -
been out for dinner with my girlfreind (still is)
went to theatre
on way home I really needed a number two...
I thought I can hold it till i get home...on the way up the drive my stomach was in knots and I knew I had to let go
so I did and I soiled myself, not a little, but a post curry soiling, down my jeans, into my boots, everywhere
I said
Think ill grab a quick shower when I get to the bathroom
I turned the bathroom light on
to hear a pop
the light had gone, and its an old style bathroom,
so while covered in my own mess I was on a ladder changing the bulb
before having 40 minutes of a shower and binning all my clothes
not my finest hour0 -
Similar to one further up the page, I was working on the reception desk at my old work and had been told by one of the other receptionists that the lights had been faulty (some were programmed via timers and couldn't be switched on and off).
I came in early one morning and the whole reception area was in darkness. Got on the phone straight away, had lots of visitors due in and it wouldn't do to have all the lights off. Filed an urgent request for someone to come out an fix them as it was a health and safety issue for customers and me, I was working with only the light of my computer etc etc.
Finally got off the phone and one of the guys who worked on the same floor walked in. I started venting to him about how none of the lights were on, I could barely see let alone work, it gave us a bad image etc etc and he flicked the light switch just to double check they weren't coming on.
It seems for all my huffing and puffing I hadn't turned the lights on when I came in! Had to make a sheepish call to update my urgent request before any workmen arrived!Thank you competition posters!

Okay I was 8 or 9 and living in the states.
Dad had taken me and brother fishing in the local park, it was a holiday, and this meant for some reason some of the public loos were shut.
So I needed to go badly, had some kind of tummy bug, and told my Dad, asked to be taken to the other loos a few minutes walk. He was lazy and said no, and couldn't hold on so I messed myself (number 2's), but ran for a tree, whipped shorts and undies down, squatted and did the rest there.
The worst part was, there were convicts litter picking in the park that day, and I just know they would have come across that tree!! :eek: Those poor, poor men, it was a real bad pile of you-know-what! :rotfl:0 -
Okay here goes. We were travelling to ireland car and ferry. you get picture. OH driving. We were on fast road when Oh said i need the loo.
I said we can stop soon when we get off this road. He said NO i need it now. With that we approached a roundabout.
He literally drove up on to the grass verge at like 50 mph. I was laughing so much it hurt.
He threw himself down a small bank and did his number two. I couldnt see by now as tears were running down my cheeks.
He finally came back with no socks on as he had wiped his bum with them.
He gets really embarrised out it. I only have to think about it and i start laughing. He then says i know what your thinking about.0 -
My mum was being examined by the gynaecologist. He asked her to give a little cough and she accidentally farted rather loudly at the same time.
She came out into the waiting room flushed red still putting her clothes on and couldn't get away quick enough!0 -
A few years ago we arrived in Blackpool and after booking in to the hotel I took my son to an amusement arcade, as it was night and raining I took the brand new care we had collected that day.
We came out of the arcade and the car was nowhere to be seen. Ran back into the arcade in a panic and floods of tears, and the kind lady sat me down and called the Police.
The Police arrived a short while later and I explained what had happened. With a knowing look the officers took me out through a different door and there was my lovely shiny new BMW exactly where I had parked it.
My son still doesn't let me live this downIf you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything. - Mark TwainNappies and government ministers need to be changed frequently and for the same reason0 -
We were at a school concert, a young girl was playing the violin, badly, my son whispered 'we've brought you a hammer' (Eddie Izzard) nothing but nothing could stop us laughing.Slightly bitter0
