Embarrassing Moments - just for fun

Hello, hope this hasn't been done before, couldn't find it so fingers crossed.
There's a lot of the same sort of thing on here at the moment, so I thought that until Backspacer arrives in everyones houses we could talk about something different.
I seem to have a had a lot of mishaps over the years that are somewhat embarrassing, so I thought I'd share some of them with you and see if anyone else would like to share;
1. I lived out in the country but used to go to college in the nearest city, to get there I had to drive my motorbike for a few miles to a local station, get the train to the city, then walk to the college. Well after a long winter we finally had some sun, I was sick of wearing jeans, fancied being a bit girly, so I thought I'd wear a skirt, which causes a few problems on a bike, so I thought I would wear leggings, tuck my skirt in and off I go. Got to the station, off come the leggings, down comes the skirt. It wasn't until I went to the toilet on arrival at college that I realised that I'd stood at the train station, gone on the train, walked accross the city and into the college with the back of my skirt tucked in my knickers.
2. I bumped into someone at our local supermarket that I'd gone to school with and she'd recently returned to the area, after college and getting married. On seeing her lovely round tummy I promptly rubbed it and exclaimed congratulations! Her reply was 'I'm just fat'.
3. I'd been going to a health and exercise club, 'fat club', to lose a bit of weight. Unfortunately none of my friends could go that week. I got weighed and sat through the little chat, then got up ready for the exercise. It was at this point I noticed I was wearing completely different trainers. After going a bit red and giggling to myself, I did the exercise then quickly went home.
4. Rushed out of the house, got in the car, went to the garage to get some fuel etc., got to work. Was sitting having morning coffee with one foot on a stool. We'd been recently discussing Birkenstock flip flops, someone noticed I had on a black one, I explained that my husband and got them cheap in Thailand, lifted my other foot up and realised that on the other foot I had a purple Clarks flip flop. I didn't have time to go home and change, I had to see a patient.
5. Recently went out for Brunch with my husband and a friend from London. I nipped up to pay me and my husbands bill and when I got back my friend said 'Oh how lovely of you, you shouldn't have!'. Unfortunately I had to break it to her that I hadn't.

Obviously I'm the only one that makes a prat of themselves, which is worrying. Oh well, ho hum, will get back to the decorating.

It's funny how many people don't like it. Not being big or clever. It's just part of me, with my new scar.
But I guess if it's due to popular demand I will change it. Wonder if I've got a picture of my elbow?
An elbow wouldn't be that bad. Just no belly-buttons, arm-pits, feet, or anything in the genital region.

Ok embarrassing moment.
I had to call maintenance at work to repair a door.It usually takes weeks to get a repair done but a workman arrived the same day.
After he had fixed the door I said "thanks your really efficient,I like a man that comes when I need him to,sees to my needs and leaves" ..... My colleague nearly choked on her coffe as I was thinking "what did I just say?" .... the workman turned various shades of red before replying in an oily cheesey voice "Only doing my job mam".

"erect" i say hugging her
:shock: :oops:
the bride hears this and practically falls down laughing but fortunately we don't think her mother heard and if she did she either didn't get it or was just too nice to say anything
you told an old woman you were erect?

In my flip-flops, I occasionally trip on nothing. Especially when I'm thinking about something other than walking... :?
I also occasionally trip on the electrical cords in the classroom when I'm giving lectures. Although, I have not fallen yet.
I like your avatar a toon remake of Johnny *GUITAR* Watson's What The Hell Is This? album. Eddie Vedder's inspiration for the new song *Johnny Guitar*
I knew when I first saw that it seemed familiar.
Peace
