Happy chickens! Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 emergency cummerbund Have now got this lovely image of a bright red cumberband in a glass box with the sign 'break in emergency' next to it!!!! Hope you've now got home safely rabbitfluff and learnt an important lesson about what not to do at work!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 In my experience first aid kits are a waste of time. I maintain 4 at church and they were brought off a proper website by church secretary and reach the legal requirements - ie if you have 20 people with broken arms all at once I dont recall safety pins. i was going to suggest buying new trousers, borrowing a skirt until I saw you were a em bloke if stapling please be careful - makes ones eyes water However by now you'll be home and in another pair of trousers I hope.

Plum Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 What great sensible ideas I was going to suggest putting his trousers on back to front. Trendy look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchens Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Order a new pair of trousers from the Next Directory on speedy delivery and stay at work until they arrive. In the meantime ring for a domino's pizza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Too late now......but I'd have sent for Egluntyne........ Eh? Why not????? - both in Sheffield area and I'm sure you've got safety pins? I was just thinking along the lines of "I wonder who is the closest Omleteer?" and looked to see where Tom was based........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 create a Word document containing a black box that's about the same size as the page, print it off, fold the resulting page a couple of times (black outermost) until it's an appropriate size and then position it inside your trousers between you and the hole. The dark'll attract less attention and the paper'll keep most of the draught off. Ooh huge chaffing papercut potential! Eeeek! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Why not????? - both in Sheffield area and I'm sure you've got safety pins? I was just thinking along the lines of "I wonder who is the closest Omleteer?" and looked to see where Tom was based........ Ah....I see. Trouble is, I've been in Manchester all day so would have been no use at all. It was a good idea though, since otherwise you'd have be able to dash round with an emergency cumberband. Lesley, who's Tom? It was Tim who had the personal dilemma. Tim, I'm sorry, but I've giggled all through this topic & now I can't stop. Not laughing, just giggling...... Hope you arrived home safely. Or did you go for the full make up & funny hat distraction. (oops, laughing now.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wears boxers, then he's properly covered, but even blokes' briefs are nowhere near as brief as women's. Besides, he had an incentive for making sure the sharp bits were suitably arranged.....

Egluntyne Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Next time why not put your trousers on back to front and always wear a coat that comes down to your knees. Oh....but of course, you will always carry that emergency cummerbund from now on, so there won't be a next time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabbitfluff Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Thank you all for the "useful" replies! They've kept me chuckling at least! I'm almost sad to report that I made it home totally unmolested. I was incredibly self-conscious thanks to a somewhat reckless choice of underpant but everything managed to stay mostly in place and any slight partings there were I was alerted to fairly quickly by the icy draught down my inside leg. I went for the carrier bag solution with a book and my phone in it so if anyone was passing I'd hold it in front of me and start rummaging for something or read an imaginary text message. I figured if anyone did notice I'd just wink. I think I managed to make myself look much more odd than if I'd just ignored it. Ah well. lessons learnt though. Spend more than nine quid on trousers and always carry a safety pin and/or cummerbund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
