Hi Brenda, Day just went too quick, there were a few people I didn't get chance to speak to. My final embarrassing story was not my fault this time (well not entirely!). I was in Germany and had just finished work. I popped along to the train station, where there's a few shops and I first went into a mini mart type place and bought a few odds and ends. Walked out and didn't hear/notice the security alarm go off. I went next door to Germany's equivalent of Boots/Superdrug and set the alarm off in there, except nobody took much notice because there was no one wandering out of the store. I bought a few items, wandered out the store and of course, set the alarm off. This time, the assistant beckoned me over and I tried walking past the alarm again. Same thing happened, so they wanted to look in the rucksack I was carrying. Well, I'd just come from the gym after finishing work and had things like shampoo, deoderant, shower gel rolling around loose in my rucksack, so I was thinking "oh no, it looks like I've nicked them!". Not being able to speak much German, I tried explaining that I'd come from the gym and the containers were half empty anyway. They seemed satisfied with that. A few days later, I'm in a large record store (the equivalent of HMV) and purchase a couple of albums. I pay for them, leave the store and then....beep beep beep....the alarm goes off again to my dismay. The security guard wanted to check my rucksack, and I had forgotten I had a couple of albums in the bottom of the rucksack as I like to listen to music whilst travelling to and from work. What made it worse was that I'd hadn't bothered to take the price tags off them when I originally purchased them. In a bit of a panic, I tried explaining and the guy eventually just grunted and waved me through. However from that point on, I've been wary of setting security alarms off!

Mine always seem to involve a lack of underwear! When I was at junior school we used to go swimming at the local high school every Friday morning. As it was the first lesson we always used to put our swimming cossies on under our uniforms and take our undies in our bags to change into afterwards. One particular day I was getting changed after swimming and couldn't find my pants. I turned the changing room upside down looking for them but to no avail. So I had to go home on the coach wearing a short skirt and no knickers. The coach had to drop me off at home on the way back to get another pair. Everybody on the bus knew what the problem was - it was sooooo embarassing. Anyway, when I got back to school I found out that my so called friend had forgotten her knickers and so had knicked mine. I never forgave her for embarassing me so much in front of everyone. Cow! lol Jeanette

And another one! A few years ago I was going to the end of season cricket presentation night so I thought I'd treat myself to a new pair of trousers. They were quite clingy round the bum and you could see a horrible VPL. As I don't get along with thongs I decided to go without knickers. I'd been at the do for a couple of hours when I needed to go to the loo. As I sat there doing what you do, I happened to look down and realised there was a great big hole in my trousers. The seam had come apart from under the zip round to the crotch area. How long had it been like that? Either nobody had noticed or they were too polite to tell me! Needless to say if I go knickerless these days I always carry a pair of pants in my handbag just incase. Jeanette

Way back in the mists of time when I was newly wed and was waiting for the arrival of my soldier husband whom I hadn't seen for 3 weeks. There was a knock on the front door I rushed to open it flung my arms round him or so I thought. Then a voice said that was very nice love but Ive only come to collect the window money Then there was the time when I was a proud new mum and one Sunday afternoon was taking the baby to show to my friends It was turning out time at the pub and suddenly my knickers fell down to my feet . You can imagine the ribald comments I got I quickly scooped them up and carried on to my friends knickerless One snowy evening many years later our daft milkman came to collect his money and whilst I was sorting it out he put a snowball down my back and of course I screamed Husband came to investigate and there I was in the arms of the milk man Does this happen often he asked? No we both replied as the milkman beat a quick retreat Later on hubby could see the funny side of it because it was the type of thing he would do himself This one is about my daughter Janette who tries to be very elegant Ha!Ha! but suffers from the terrible complaint of tights that get big holes in them and fall down She works in the local job centre and one day a claimant was taken ill and collapsed so she went to investigate. Wondering why all her workmates were laughing she looked up and there she was on the close circuit tv with her tights round her ankles Bren
