Embarrassment

What's the most embarrassing situation you've ever been in???!

Ok, ok, I'll start. In 1983 or '84, I was going on holiday to Spain in one of those "luxury" coaches.

We'd been driving a couple of hours and I needed to go to the toilet for a number 2.

I made my way down the stairs and entered the little room only to find that the "luxury coach" didn't even have a lock on the door.

No problem I thought, I'll hold the door shut whilst sitting on the seat. This, however proved to be harder than it seemed, as I really had to stretch to reach the door to stop it opening inward.

There I was, perched precariously on the edge of the seat, trying to have a quick dump, when suddenly... The door opened outward! A little girl of about six stood there, transfixed, as people above and behind her sat laughing and beckoning to their mates!!!

Shut the door, quick." I hissed and then sat with my head in my hands.

Eventually I came out and I'm sure everyone on the coach already knew!!!

I had to endure another 30-odd hours on that bus with all those people not to mention the journey back!

I once got into a lift on the 20th floor of a building with my then four year old daughter. It stopped on the floor below and a very short person got in. "Oh look mum, its a dwarf!" said my delighted child who was a big Snow White fan. I swear the lift took an hour to get us all to the bottom.

I was rather drunk after a night out with my then boyfriend's lodger.He was in a mood and wouldn't let us in, she had forgotten her key and I was desperate for a wee. I pleaded with him for 10 minutes as he just hung out of the bedroom window and refused to let us in. He told me to go in the road, if I was so desperate. Not realising how loud one can be after a few drinks and how voices carry, I did just that. There was a loud "sissing" noise as I relieved myself and a ;loud cheer as all his neighbours looked out of their windows. He did let me in after that, though.
