As always we have had our usual selection of "holiday howlers" that we regret as soon as we have uttered them! For example a member of the family asked is the sea wet? Look at that plane ( it was a seagull! )
i was walking home from school with my friend and he saw the trail that planes leave in the sky he said "look at that comet" had me laughing for ages. One day when the same friend was at my house i banged my leg on the radiator and a bruise came up he said"that's skin cancer" that didn't make me laugh
I was visiting an aquarium recently and overheard a woman asking if the sharks were real. I felt like telling her they were actually clockwork or a hologram.
Sorry, Nat84 - can't take you telling us to be careful seriously when u have just admitted to applying fake tan with a wooden spoon and plastic bag :-). No offence !
Not long after we were married, hubby and i were having a romantic stroll in the woods looking at the different birds and I asked him 'what type of bird was woody woodpecker then?' I have never lived it down.
