Embarrassing Moments.

[Georgiesmum]

What was your most embarrassing moment? Do you have any comical tales to tell?

Sparkles - similar embarrassment - I used to have a dog that's hunt down embarrassing things. When my mum visits, it''s not a normal clean I do, but a decade of spring cleaning in a day! I'd washed the windows, cleaned down the outside walls the lot. And what met her? A lovely swept path? A sparkling clean door? No. A box of tampons, some knickers and odd socks scattered about

As a slightly drunk teenager, someone gave me a little push and I fell against someone's front door. As I went to get up, I realised that the door had opened straight on to their living room and I was lying on their carpet, with the whole family staring at me.

A friend and I hitched to Paris one Easter for a short break. Having had an enjoyable weekend sightseeing, I went to pay the hotel bill. Looking at the bottom right of the invoice I saw the figures and handed over the money. The receptionist handed back about half and when I queried it she said"Monsieur you have just paid the date".

Was invited to spend a weekend with a girlfriend at her Aunt's house in Penge. Aunt had gone away for the week end but came back unexpectedly, resulting in my hiding under the bed, quite starkers, for some time. This many years ago when attitudes were different.

On her way from my aunt's to home my sister called in carrying a recently roasted turkey in a baking tin, loosely covered in foil. ( Don't ask...my family) She stood at the back of the sofa with the tin under her arm admiring my newly born son.
As she left MiL's snooty friend called in on her way to a Christmas do....all dolled up. Removed her shoes at the door and stood behind the sofa for a peek at new baby. I had no idea why her face became more anguished and she was squirming til I followed her into the hall and saw the congealing, fatty footprints she left after standing in the turkey fat spilled by my sister.

Oh god, I have just remembered hiding in a wardrobe (naked) whilst at college while the commanding officer of himself's TA unit thingie bellowed at the door (and he was in full uniform, with a uniformed lackey by his side). Going to stop thinking now, as I haven't even remembered up to my twenties.

Oh there are plenty and then more.

Being 25 and going to a mate's stag night, sending a flaming drambuie spinning across a table in the Star Tavern just off Belgrave Square. I can remember being at his house in Wandsworth much later, but then woke up in my bedroom around 1pm the next day, 1.5 miles up the hill into Wimbledon.

With a colossal hangover, I walked into the hall to find two motorway cones reposing there......we reckoned later I had carried them back over a mile up West Hill.

Great laugh at all the posts. I remember once when I was working for Office Services and they had sent me to the local chocolate factory to type their invoices. At the bottom of the invoice you had to type 'amal' - don't know why but think it was probably a shortened version of amalgamated. In my ignorance and innocence I typed 'anal' instead. I had to go through the lot and alter it. Well, I wasn't very old, although that's not much of an excuse.

In the family business, we employed an ex female divorce lawyer who couldn't hack it emotionally - she was pretty good looking too. Imagine her embarrassment when the catalogue that she had put together for marine equipment came out and there was written next to an outboard engine petrol tank, (minus the hyphen) "one 15 litre w-ank".

Going in to work one morning just at reception my skirt fell down, it was only filmed on security cameras, it was shown at every party or do after.
When a teenager i pulled a white knitted bobble hat out of a drawer, put it on and put my coat on, said "Bye Mum" and went out, Mum chased after me and said "What on earth are you doing" I looked at my hat and there hooked in it at the back was a ST belt. Than the Lord Mum spotted it before I hit the High street.
