Lol. You should've stood back to see if anyone else did it. OH usually takes me to dinner after giving birth - well, it's the least he can do. :unsure:

My last baby was so good she sat under the table in her carseat and never made a sound. We paid and left and suddenly realised when we got to the car that she was still under the table. :eek:

I laughed so much reading this thread that tears were running down my face and I stomach hurt. Laughter is the best medicine :-)

One "what a twat!" personal mishap occurred a couple of years ago. I always zeroise the milage clock whenever I fill my car's tank. On that occasion I only remembered to zeroise shortly after leaving the petrol station. The problem was I was approaching a roundabout and I got my timing and coordination wrong... very wrong! :blink: I had to turn the steering wheel to go around the roundabout, didn't remove my hand in time, trapped my wrist with the crossmember of the steering wheel and broke the indicator arm off :eek:. Very embarrassing! :o

I once leaned on a bus shelter window.... which sadly had no glass in it.

I promptly went base over apex through the 'window' and ended up in the middle of the road.

I always burst into hysterics if i'm walking towards someone and they are walking along the kerb and the next minute a foot tumbles over the edge and they go all wonky and nearly fall - cracks me up everytime that does. :eek:

I also managed to walk into a mirrored wall at Keele Services... I assumed the 'guy' walking towards me would move to the side... which was a little difficult for him to do as it was my own reflection !! :blink:

I was going swimming once to the local pool. I picked my mate up, and he threw his towel, shorts and shower gel into a bag and off we go. After swimming a fair few laps of the pool, we get out.
My mate gets into the shower cubicle next to me, and all I hear is "Oh, f*k, I grabbed the wrong thing. I brought 2-stroke oil with me, instead of the shower gel!"

Laughter could be heard from the whole of the changing rooms...:rofl:

My late grandmother once actually tried to have a conversation with her reflection in a mirror and was getting the hump with this "ignorant woman" I just wonder how she didnt notice that the "other womans" mouth was moving every time my Nanna spoke, maybe she had left her glasses in the fridge that day:D

That kind of reminds me of a prank that we pulled in work once. There's a bloke at our office who just drones on and on so one day somebody recorded him and then we telephoned another co-worker whose not known for his patience and played it back to to him as if it were a live conversation. It was very funny it was like: "Roy!", "WTF are you talking about!", "Shut up!", "Let me say something!" and "Grrrr!" ....It was such a laff! :rofl: :lol:

I bought my dad a shirt for his birthday. It was one of those warm lumberjack checked efforts to keep him warm when he was in the garage.

Sometime that day he put the shirt on and popped out to go shopping and he said he felt "uncomfortable".

When he got to the checkout he realised he'd left all the cardboard in the back - he'd been shopping with the stuff still in the shirt & wondered why everyone was looking at him strange:rolleyes:
