lol. Well what happens to me is that I'm not very tactful...I usually end up saying something which offends someone but not meaning to. Lucia

Spending a week end in London many years ago with my husband, crossed a busy street and on the other side realised I had an elderly gentleman by the hand - I began to apologise and he smiled and said 'I guess you left the children at home today'! That is what happened as we began to cross I automatically put my hand down and had grabbed his hand. Everytime we crossed a road after that my husband reminded me we were on our own! Ann

So far today, it's been tripping over LOL Walking to work this morning, I had to cross a minor road (in the rush hour), went behind the large lorry, in front of an extremely posh car - and fell over - loudly. Quickly stood up and patted the car - rushed to work in a horrendous (embarrassed) sweat. LOL I'm not 50 yet!!! My 75 year old mother has never done this. I was soooo glad no-one saw me and came to my aid LOL My knee's sore now (sob|) maggie

Pulling the kids home from school on a sledge - it hit the kerb (unseen in the snow) and I sprawled in the road - much to the amusement of passing cars! Ruffling the hair of someone I thought I recognised from behind - and I didn't know him from Adam. 'Ello darlin' fancy a good time?' to someone I THOUGHT was my husband. Thinking I could embarrass my boss when he was making such a meal of distributing the office Christmas presents by kissing him soundly - and having him reciprocate?? - don't know who was more embarrassed! - especially when I got a round of applause. Having 'hold up' stockings roll down below my knee in a neat little tyre when walking through a factory full of blokes. Oh ....and on a car 'Hill Climb' event - where the passenger has to bounce up and down trying to get a grip to get further up the hill - and my 'Living Bra' lived it UP. Need I go on? My whole LIFE is one long embarrassment! Magsxx
