OK, anybody got any embarrassing stories that have happened to them and which they don’t mind sharing? Typically mine involves alcohol and a birthday bash (sorry it's a bit long!). Was the beginning of July, back in 2001, and I had flown over from Germany to my mate’s place near Oxford. We went to someone’s BBQ in the afternoon, and the old fruit punch was flowing. Very nice it was too and knocked back a few, whilst not taking too much notice of the copious amounts of gin, vodka, red wine and fruit juice being poured into the mixing bowl. After that went to a couple of local pubs before getting a taxi into Oxford. Went to Chicago Rock café and we were stood about for a bit but then the drink started to take hold. Out of the corner of my eye, I spied some girls dancing and decided it was time for me to strut my funky stuff (my dancing is probably on a par with David Brent). So, I just bowled on in there and thankfully didn’t send everyone fleeing to the other side of the room. By the time I decided to have another drink, I couldn’t see my mates (that probably says something) and I noticed that my cash was running low. So, I wandered out and went to the cash machine, however upon returning, I couldn’t get back in; the bouncer said that they were not letting anyone else in (England is not like Germany and you can’t just wander in anywhere at any time of the night!). I didn’t argue with the bouncer as I knew we were all meeting up later at the house, where we had the BBQ earlier. I caught a taxi back (£40, ouch) and managed to find the house, however there was no-one in so my plan had backfired. In a slightly confused state, I decided to head back for my mate’s house where I was staying (though I know not why as he and the others wouldn’t have got back yet). However, ended up getting lost and so I flagged down a lift and tried telling the driver where I needed to go. He wasn’t sure where the housing estate was so we ended up driving all over town, stopping and asking people until we eventually found the house. I was privately hoping that my mates had got back but there was no-one home, so was locked out and the only thing I could do was go to sleep for the night on the drive-way, huddling under my mate’s car! Managed a few hours sleep but my mates didn’t come back and I woke up early the next morning and wandered into town in order to kill a few hours. Made my way back around midday and my mates had arrived home by then (they had slept over at someone elses house) and wondered what the hell had happened to me! I had my camera with me that night and after getting the photos back, I had clearly had my beer goggles on that night as the women I was dancing with were, ahem, shall we say a little middle-aged! My mate said it looked like I had gatecrashed a WI meeting! Lesson has been learned somewhat from that night….

and there was me thinking it would involve fluffy rabbit ears andy lol

AND YOU WAS SO QUIET AT MANCHESTER.

I was about 6 or 7 & sitting crossed legged in the middle of a row of children in my junior school. It was the end of the lords prayer & having possibly eaten a large amount of baked beans the previous evening, I started to feel a little...er....windy. Well, you know when you try to let a discreet little parp out ? Well, mine Vibrated on the floor. you know....Bloooop ! Even the Headmaster paused for a second. I remember feigning innocence, but all I could hear was "Urgh Elaines Farted ! ", " Eeeerrr it was you ! " ahhh memories ! LOL:o)) Elaine x

Andy cocker, if I had been one of those middle aged ladies I would have thought my luck was in lol. Terri

Years ago when I was in my early twenties I was stick thin. Having eaten one of my mums large dinners I felt a bit bloated so undone the button on my fashionable pencil skirt. A Little while later my boyfriend and I took a video back to the hire shop (thats how long ago it was!) in his van. Parking on yellow lines in the busy high street I nipped out to drop off the video and low and behold my skirt fell down, right down to the ground not just a little slip. There was I in the middle of the street ,skirt around my ankles with black stockings on. Mortified I turned around for some support but unawares he had driven off round the block, had to pick up my skirt and dress myself in full view of a busy high street. I was so embarressed it took me ages to tell him that night and then he creased himself laughing with no thought for my prediciment. Thank god I didnt marry him! Mind you I can laugh now. Penny

Ray always has had a habit of walking ahead of me, once walking around a market in Dover I stopped to look at a stall selling underwear, linking arms with him I said "I think I will buy that sexy black bra after all." "And very nice you will look I am sure." came the bemused answer You guessed it. I had linked arms with a perfect stranger.

when my son was about 7 he did the most dreadfull thing..... i was in the bathroom, powdering my nose!!!!or something.....there is a knock at the door.....get that will you son i shout down the stairs....ok mum........he opens the door and calls up the stairs.......mum....its that fat lady you dont like..........ever wanted to go round the u bend????/ i did that day......

After visiting friends, I was driving home via a country road, when I was caught short. My son was four at the time and I decided to stop at a roadside cafe to visit the loo. On arriving, a coach tour had just arrived, full of elderly ladies, so I hurried with my son to get to the front of the 'loo queue'. Friendly ladies allowed us to go first, thinking that the need was for my son. Into the cubicle - ahhh relief! Suddenly my son (in a loud voice) said 'Mummy, why do you sit down to wee? I can stand up to wee, why can't you? Try standing up to wee mum, you're a big girl now' Then I had to face the queue of ladies, who were laughing and nodding to each other.... Not to mention the time when I was a student in Aberdeen and shared a flat with three other girls, one of whom was rather well endowed. We used to share clothes and one morning I spotted my flat mates jumper which I coveted! Quickly put it on and set off to get the bus. I thought that the 'admiring' looks were at the beautiful jumper and I smiled at everyone in the bus queue, feeling very pleased with myself. It was only when I got on the bus, the driver said to me 'If I was you, I'd remove that before anyone else gets an eyeful' Puzzled, I sat down and took off the jumper, only to find that my flat mates bra was hooked on to the back of the jumper and had been merrily flapping in the breeze... Di in Sydney

I left home with my three carrier bags, went to the taxi rank and got in the car. "Newcastle please" I asked. I explained to the driver exactly where I wanted to go on the way. We arrived at my destination (6 mile journey) and I asked "how much do I owe you?" His reply........."That's alright love, I was only waiting for my friends to come out of the pub, I'm not a taxi" and that's only one of my embarrassing moments!!!!!!

Tracey, I nearly died laughing when i read that. What a picture that must have been. I have many embarrasing moments but one that comes to mind now is walking along the shopping centre and thinking my jeans felt a bit strange. I looked down and noticed something sticking out the bottom and proceeded to try and remove the offending article only to find it was a pair of tights I had been wearing the day before. I pulled and pulled until they eventually all came out. I nearly died and my friend almost wet herself. If i think of any more i'll add them on. Pam :o))

I've got so many but one that comes to mind was when I was leaving a job, many years ago, we were having a girlie night out. A few of us were going for a meal in a very popular chinese restaurant. Half way through the meal I had to go to the ladies. Afterwards, making my way back to my table I could hear giggles, then a group of guys at one table stood up and applauded soon the whole restaurant were applauding. It wasn't 'til one of my friends told me my skirt was stuck firmly in my knickers, that I knew why. And I was wearing stockings and sussies. Agggghhhhhh!

I used to work for a large department store. One sunny day a friend and i were walking from the back of the store to the front when i spotted this young well endowed girl who wasn't wearing a bra under her tight top, you could have hung up a few coats! "that's disgusting" says i "it is so obvious she is not wearing a bra, i think that's terrible, you would think that she would know better" Says my friend "that's my sister"

lolol i like the pop socks message, so funny. Well i have loads but the worst was, when i was 14, i was told i had to be in the school play (i had never said yes as im shy) and i played a flower seller, well as i have crutches and couldnt get on the stage, the teachers put a block at the front of the stage with a chair for me to sit on. They said after my part they would help me move. For the part i had to wear a long skirt and i NEVER wear skirts. So sat down all happy did my part,but after no one came to help, so i stood up, the light went off, i tripped on my skirt and flew into the audience, if that wasnt bad enough, the light then came on and my skirt was around my ankles with my knicks stuck up my bum, a 12 yr old boy stalked me in school for weeks after lol NEVER going near a stage again

Hi Andy And there you were in Manchester wearing a pair of fluffy rabbit ears sat amongst middle aged ladies sober I think .Although I suppose your water bottle could have contained Vodka , and you do look slightly worse for wear in the piccie I took of you Bren

My embarrasing stories always seem to involve a certain time of the month! One year me and my family went on a holiday to Wales, I must have been about 16, there I was sitting on a rock in my little bikini trying to catch the eye of any males that walk past (14 years on and I'm still doing the same!) when my brother (2 years older than me) says "Karen youve got a bit of cotton lose on your bikini bottoms" and yep youve guessed it, the cotton wasnt attached to my bikini, it was attached to something else abit more personal! (blush!)

Camping in Devon we had a spot quite close to the loos. Very convenient. And unisex, just like France. Very modern for England I thought. It wasn't until about the third day that I was politely informed by one of the other users that the gents was on the other side of the site.

Another story involving alcohol happened when I was at university (now there's a surprise!). It was during Fresher's week although I was just starting my final year. We'd been out and my mate and I came back together and when we got back, we watched a film and started drinking this bottle of vodka that you can only get in places like Cyprus and so on. A little while later, two of our other housemates (Simon and Ashley) arrived back in a raucous mood and we all congregrated in Simon's room for a chat and a bit of a laugh. Everyone was in the room and I remember sitting on the bed and then the next thing I know, I'm being woken up by Simon (the one whose bedroom we'd been in), except it was dark and there was no one else around. Confused, I suddenly realised I'd gone to sleep and noticed that I appeared to be wearing Simon's t-shirt and shorts that he wore for going to bed!! Waking up the next day, we discussed what had happened. Apparently myself and Ashley had passed out on Simon's bed. Ashley woke up, went back to his room and was joined by Simon. Some time later, Ashley came back downstairs to get something to eat, and was puzzled to see the outline of someone fast asleep in Simon's bed, yet he had just left Simon upstairs in his room! When he got back upstairs, Simon had passed out on his bed and so Ashley turfed him out. Simon came downstairs and then discovered me fast asleep in his bed; I'd gone to sleep thinking I was in my own room! Chaos reigns!!

that completely confused me lol
