Being walked through a busy shopping centre with a policewoman hanging on to my arm and everyone staring at me wondering what I'd done was pretty embarrassing.
(I was a couple of months pregnant, had fainted on the bus to work- I got that instead of morning sickness - she insisted on escorting me to the taxi-rank to put me in a cab home, and she wouldn't let go of my arm in case I fainted again! She meant well but)

I was at the Louvre with my fiance. He was in front of me and I put my hand on his shoulder and also kissed his shoulder. He turned round and I realised that it wasn't him but some stranger. I ran off pretty quickly.0

I was in hospital waiting to be induced with DD. Id had no pains no nothing and has nodded off on the bed. I woke up and saw DH was dozing too. I go off the bed thinking I needed a wee, stood up and felt the baby in my undies. I shouted could someone help please but nobody came so I screamed DH name as loud as I could while ripping off my knickers (as you do in a coridoor in hospital) DH appeared looked at the baby inbetween my legs and stood screaming like a child shouting its in her knickers help! By now id quite a lot of people, vistors mainly but no medical staff watching me. DH grabed someone as they came out of theatre who took one look at me and swore. My labour was timed at 2 minutes. I laughed all the way through it. I just wish everyone hadn't have seen my lady bits LOLMad Mum to 3 wonderful children, 2 foster kittens and 2 big fat cats that never made it to a new home!

I'm great at embarrassing myself, but must also be great at blocking it out because I can't call much to mind. The most recent thing was when I was at the doctors getting a neurological examination and she asked me to puff out my cheeks. Unfortunately it struck me as being really funny for some reason and I ended up in fits of giggles every time I tried to do it.0

I have loads but i cant call any of them to mind frustratingly! My family also say some of the funniest things, the one that does stick in my head is my elderly grandmother - a lady tragically got ran over near where i live, the story was in the paper and it was pretty horrible (decapitation).
My Nan came round that night and said 'did you hear about that lady? she got decafinated!' - As horrible as the whole event was our whole family were in stitches at that one statement (feeling slightly guilty but laughing nevertheless)MFW - <£90kAll other debts cleared thanks to the knowledge gained from this wonderful website and its users!0 -
Another one for you
I went to see Pan's Labyrinth in the cinema with a group of friends. The friend sitting next to me found it so scary she was trying to stuff her head inside her coat sleeve. I'm afraid I just completely got the giggles at that point - along with a couple of other friends sitting nearby. The cinema was completely quiet, all concentrating on the tension on screen - apart from us laughing away at what was a totally inappropriate moment, and then getting lots of stares from other cinema goers!

My latest happened last night actually. I was in Tesco with a full trolley, got to the checkout and the young man told me he only had the small tiny bags, not the normal big ones.
Cue me calling to the unsuspecting young man at the next checkout, without thinking, "Hi, do you have big ones?"
They both fell about in fits, I nearly choked from laughing!0 -
I used to work in a Tesco Express and was serving on the till one night, with the duty manager on the till next to mine. We were both busy serving when the manager had a lady asking for a particular item. The manager pointed to the shelf behind us and said 'yes, we have flavoured or ribbed'. The lady said 'erm, sorry - I said have you got any poppadoms?'Sealed Pot Challenge #817 £50 banked0
