Daft, silly or embarrassing things you have done?

I once said "excuse me" to a dog which was sitting in a shop doorway........

I've trained my dog to move if you say excuse me! People think the dog is so refined!

A friend went to an interview with odd shoes. One with a much bigger heel than the other. During the interview she asked about access and parking - it turns out they thought her gait meant she was disabled and went through all the adjustments they make for disabled people.

And as she told us this in front of her OH, it turned out he didn't know this had happened - she'd been to embarrassed to tell him!

Oh dear I feel I am no longer special after reading all these!

I'm excellent at injuring myself.

Whilst explaining to the then OH how sharp the new knives were and to be careful, then promptly lost part of my index finger.

I've sprained my thumb pulling the chain at work toilet, great fun writing in incident book yet alone explaining to doctors..

Forgot the old glass shower door moved quite freely, tried and failed to hold onto it and promptly slipped back and knocked myself unconcious.

Grabbed a pan off the hob the other night after changing my mind what I was going to cook. Forgetting I'd already put the heat on.

Fell over a commode chair at work after getting my shoelace trapped in it. The fall really hurt my hip but I was too ashamed to admit my foolishness and explain myself in A&E so pretended was nothing and spent 4 weeks limping dosed up on painkillers..

Frequently put the butter in the cupboard and the crackers in the fridge and other things in the kitchen where they shouldn't be.

Drove off the other week with my water bottle on the roof...

Spent 25 minutes trying to get out of a hospital two weeks ago after visiting a friend and going full circle on myself.

Mopsypops the telephone reminds me of when I changed job a few years back, kept answering as old companies name oops!

My father looked high and low for my mothers slippers one day, he found them put together very neatly in the fridge, she had Alzheimers lol

They have both passed now but we still laugh about what she did.

We moved house a few weeks ago, and since we got here we've noticed a draught in the living room. We thought the window frame wasn't sealed properly and have been researching how to fix the problem and how much it should cost.

Today I was cleaning the window and discovered it wasn't closed properly... :rotfl: I'm taking comfort in knowing that my OH is as much of an idiot as I am cos he didn't notice either!

When we moved to this house I had the flu and wanted to lie on the sofa in peace at the end of the 1st day, but Mr GG and DS wanted to watch TV, which wasn't working. 1 hour later, having tried and tried to retune etc, they finally gave up.

The next morning I followed the aerial cable along from the TV to the wall socket and plugged it in .
