Your most embarrassing moment...to date?

Recommended Posts

On the subject of cold calling, I had a call last night from VirginMedia offering to "save me money". I was slightly suspicious and when he asked for the first 2 digits of my account password I was loathe to give it and kept telling him my password wasn't digits so I wasn't giving it to him as he obviously didn't know my password is letters.

 

He kept saying it's not a problem if you've forgotten your p/w, I kept saying I haven't but I'm not giving it to you as you obviously don't know it's letters not digits, eventually he said "I asked for the first 2 characters, not digits". Oops :oops: .

 

I'm now paying £2 a month for 250 minutes of 08 and 07 numbers (a bargain, going by the past 6 months of my bill :roll: ).

Booked our kitten into the vets surgery as she had an upset tum. We got an appt with a young, newly qualified vet and very helpful she was too, prescribing a few potions and special diet food.

 

Next day, we took our 18+yr old tom cat for her to see but the "mature" owner of the practice asked if he could take the appt instead, as he was free whilst the young girl was overrunning.

 

"Sure!" said my DH, "Yesterday it was the young girl and now it's the old man"... To which the vet replied kindly, "You can wait for the other vet if you prefer" and DH hurried to explain he was talking about the CATS, not the vet!

OH went shopping and left me in car park as I was driving. He unfortunately returned to the wrong car and leapt into passenger seat, freaking both the other driver and himself in the process.

 

My mother in law once queued for ages at her building society only to find at the front of the queue she was in the wrong building society and should have been next door! I think I am going to be just the same.

 

Mine involves intercoms and that is all you are going to get! :silenced:

Last night my friend and I were out boogieing to live music and also disco tracks and I accidently hit a guy in the groin flinging my arms around - it wasnt hard - he squeaked and grinned at me and I said "sorry" and starting giggling which somehow set my friend off.

 

And my 10 year old this morning - in his cubs uniform ready for church and clutching his harvest festival goodies - I went to open my old banger of a car as OH was taking ES to footie - put my bags in and got in and belted up and thought :doh::doh: "summat missing" Got out and peered into OH's car and theres YS sitting belted up examining contents of his bag. I tapped on the window and said "oy wrong car" We had to laugh - could have got to church and remembered him :whistle:

I can't believe I'm sharing this.....

 

about 12 years ago I was still living with my parents. They were out so I didn't bother shutting the bathroom door while I had a shower, and their house is really private and not at all overlooked upstairs so got dried put hair in a towel and walked back to my room naked to get dressed.

 

There was a window cleaner doing the hallway window :shock: he nearly fell off his ladder as I ran (oh dear :roll: ) past the window into my room.

 

I shut the door behind me only to see another window cleaner at my bedroom window :shock: so I turned round ran back out (past the first man :oops: ) and into the spare room. But my torture wasn't over there was a third :shock::shock::shock: window cleaner doing that window too!!!! So I ran back out, (past the first man again :oops: ) and back into the bathroom. I stayed here hidden in towels sat on the floor for what seemed like hours.

 

I mean how many window cleaners work in 3s for heavens sake :roll:

 

Butt naked is bad enough but naked and running is never a good combination! Mind you they never did come for their money :lol:

That was brilliant Fluffy chick - I can imagine it happening all too easily, our window cleaners also travel in a pack, there's always at least 3 of them! Luckily they make enough noise to set the dogs barking so I get advance warning of their arrival :lol:

Not sure I want to admit this but you can all have a good laugh at my expense.

Went to DD2's local gig, then stayed watching her friends in a rock and roll band with an energetic modern twist. Some of her friends (all mid 20's) were dancing and one young man grabbed my arm to join the group. Well, I enjoy a good bop (sorry, that's a cringeworthy word apparently) so I thought, why not?

Daughter fine about it, she's grown up with embarrassing parents after all, nothing will shock her.

 

Then aforementioned young man started waving his arms above his head.

Bit weird I thought, it's how teenagers think parents dance, but I personally have only ever seen it to Hi Ho Silver Lining, my arms are usually waist level.

But, he continued and gestured me to do the same, so I did, thinking how young & groovy I must be.

Mum, high five, do a high five, yelled my daughter. Poor man, he wanted acknowledgement that it was a good idea joining in, and I'd left him waving his arms on his own.

 

Hope daughter still has some friends left. :lol::oops::oops::lol: Will I ever be invited to join them again?

Ok made an idiot out of myself today... Was baby sitting my 1 year old (well in 2 days) nephew today. We were in the baby change area of a shopping centre... I was doing my "silly dance" which makes him giggle... Realised I had an audience of teenagers who had gone to the group toilets in the same area :oops: they laughed at me :oops:

 

So apparently my silly dance is entertaining to children of all ages :wink:

 

Dogmother, your underwear story has made me giggle knowing you all :clap::lol:

Pure class the Window Cleaner saga! :clap::lol:

As for the teenagers laughing at you - well if they are that daft they might be doing it themselves with a baby soon! :roll:

It's normal to dance & lose your inhibitions with children isn't it? I got flippin' soaked on Saturday whilst fetching bucket of water from the sea, for my 2 year old Nephew. I looked round quick, but no one saw me. Thank god! Waves, even little ones are unpredictable!
