    At work, in a quiet but full office, ending a business call to someone I barely know, with "Love you".

    Thought I'd add to this as it's a 'chuckle at it' thread


    We were at a christening in a very posh restaurant when my 7 year old needed the toilet. My 13 year old daughter wanted to go too so she took her. It wasn't far from our table and I could see the entrance to the toilet.

    After 10 minutes I wandered over to the toilets as they seemed to have been in there far too long.

    On entering the toilets I was met by my 13 year old who said that the little one wouldn't come out of the cubicle. There were many people waiting for the loo so I knocked on the door of the cubicle to ask her what the problem was and she very loudly replied................

    "I can't come out because I can't get this log to go down".....
    gotta love 'em :rotfl:

    I used up the last photo on a disposable camera years ago.

    Mum comes home later:

    "Where's that disposable camera that was on the table?"

    "Oh I put it in the bin as I took the last photo".... and then the penny dropped... :o

    Gosh, I've had a couple in the last few days!

    I washed up the other night, sloshed water down my front, then as soon as I was done ran round to the shop before it shut. The shopkeeper commented that I was soaked and I told him "I've just washed up and I wet myself" :rotfl:

    To make things worse, I then started flustering and flapping and going "no, no, I didn't mean that, it's washing-up water, look there are bits of cheese in it" and pointed out the bits of cheese stuck to my top!

    Then today the pest man came to spray the house (bedbugs-uurgh!) and I didn't realise until I came home that I had left the battery-operated-boyfriend under the bed where he would have seen it through the slats when he lifted the mattress - oh and my landlord was there at the time to supervise!

    Not only that but I left a syringe (for insulin!) in full view on my desk.
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.
  • I once left work, walking past a supermarket with big glass windows and just tripped right over nothing. Fell flat on my face. So I got up and walked back to sit on the bench for 10 minutes so anyone that saw me would have long gone and I wouldn't have to walk past again.

  • A friend of mine stunk out the whole bar quietly letting one slip while waiting on her new boyfriend to turn up... it was so bad people walking past the door smelt it.

    There's the time I came back from a ride on a hired horse, and dismounted. The feeling had gone from my legs and I collapsed in a heap under the horse.
    Then there was the time #3 son filled up on the pick and mix at the cinema and barfed the lot onto his plate at the Harvester.....
    The last one - friends were helping me move house from a quiet village were everyone knew my Ex, when one found the 'battery powered boyfriend' under the mattress, and decided to wave it out of the window and tell everyone about it...
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    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 hour

    Glad I'm not the only one :o

    Driving to my Mother's house with new partner in car. We decide to stop at McDonalds for a quick bite to eat. It didn't sit well at all and 40 mins away from my Mum's place I really needed the loo. I got within 2 minutes drive away, and realised I wouldn't make it. So I pulled over on a 'B' road. Upon trying to jump a fence and get my jeans down it all gave way and I coud do nothing as the proverbial flowed.The worst part was when she got out of the car, for what reason I'll never know, and called to see if I was OK. She could only watch in horror as the incident unfolded and I couldn't even speak.

    I then had to come out from behind the tree, scale the fence with underwear full of poo. It wasn't the most pleasant last two minutes drive up to my Mum's either. Nor did I enjoy having to ask for bin bags for my soiled clothes.

    Still at least my partner found it funny, and she is marrying me so it couldn't have been that bad :rotfl:

    Ah, i bought a new dress and was rather drunk on NYE and a bit camera happy. I uploaded lots of pictures to facebook. Only after uploading did i realise my boob had popped out on half the pictures. I swiftly deleted the offending pics but am now left with the rather embarassing realisation that half the pub may have gotten an eyeful that night :o
