Ok try this one! We have a fishpond, hubby cleaned it out and put the fish in a big bucket. Well, after two hours in the bucket they were gasping a bit and two appeared dead. Daughter swished one around in the pond and it revived. The other, no signs of life so hubby decided to give it mouth to mouth - yes, I know, its a fish! "What happened?" said I. "Well it inflated and its eyes bugged out and then it came to!" Probably his bad breath - always knew it would blow life back into a corpse! Lisa

when my mum was a young girl, my nan went out to work & told grandad (who had been off ill from work) to cook dinner (meat pots & veg.) Nan came home to Roast lamb, boiled potatoes and........... Boiled lettuce ! Mum heaved at the thought for years after lol Elaine x (gag....gag)

saying that the standing joke for my cooking was when i was 16 and just experimenting with food i mashed spuds through a colander!!!!!!!xxxx(:

Thank you everyone. You have made my Monday morning. I have tears of laughter rolling down my face. becx

Another one to show that the ladies aren't immune either!! A friend used to bring her packed lunch etc to work in a supermarket carrier bag. One lunchtime she opened the bag, only to discover that she had brought the bag of rubbish that was meant for the dustbin, where she had of course deposited her lunch!!!LOL Chrissie x

They forget to put the bolt on the gate, leaving an invite for somebody to come and somehow steal their prize mountain bike out of the shed!..

Earlier in the year, our son went on a 3-day geography field trip so his dad kindly got his wellies out of the shed to lend him. When son got home, he said that he'd looked a right fool because dad had given him two odd wellies, one had laces up the front, the other one didn't (oops sorry son!). But that wasn't all - he'd given him two left feet as well!! Poor son had been plodding about in the river with a sore foot as well as odd wellies. Actually I could take up an entire thread with things my hubby's done over the years ....... lol !!

Hubbie went to work wearing a pair of black socks with a sparkly lurex pattern up the sides belonging to my daughter. The same man also walked around town for over an hour flashing bright red undercrackers because he had forgotton to zip up after a trying on session in Burtons,,Sad thing was though..he hadnt just left it undone,,but it was gaping,,(and i mean gaping) open.

Talking of blocks of cheese Mags I sent my 5 year old to school with a block .When I realised at lunch time I raced down with her proper lunch.The block of cheese had been nibbled all around the edges.She got called mousey by her dad for awhile glad she saw the funny side .So us women do funny things too Margaret

My dad :- The only person I know who has ever sawn off the branch of the tree that their ladder was resting against! Running late - grabbed what he thought was his lunch and took a block of cheese to work with him. In the days of bath salts - went to the store cupboard as there were none in the bathroom and ended up bathing in Ajax that mum had got hold of wholesale. Got to work and didn't recognise a soul - he had misread the clock and the night shift were still on. Cycling home from work didn't see the 'Road Up' sign, rode over the sign and down the hole behind it and broke 3 ribs. I could go on! My dad, God rest his soul. RIP but the memories are forever. Magsxx

I don't wish to consider THAT!

Heres one for you guys to consider.A few years ago we went for a tramp with friends not being of the outdoor type came back full of aches and pains.Hubby rubbed deep heat liberally on himself then went to the toilet but hadnt washed his hands you can imagine the result Margaret

He's not so silly after all then!

How about hubby frying an egg in sunlight and washing the dishes in cooking oil. I think he does it on purpose so I feel sorry for him and take over crafty devil knows me after 37 years Margaret
