Embarrassing moments

Post by Rob »

Has anyone else had an embarrassing moment?
I went out yesterday in odd socks one black and one light blue!! Embarrassed???!!!
I pretended it was the new fashion but i was fighting hard not to blush(at my age!!!)
Mind you it could have been worse!!
I could have gone out with odd shoes!! Now that would be embarrassing!!

I have too many to say! :oops:
I'm really accident prone and embarrassing.
One was, trying to cut back a branch from our tree growing into next doors garden. I dont have very good balance at the best of times and shouldnt really have attempted it. I was stood on some step ladders with a saw, the branch went quicker than I could react and I ended up falling upside down in our conifers. I couldnt get out and shouted for help. Some neighbours thought my shouts were peacocks :roll: But then realised it was me and came into our house. They hunted all over then looked in the garden, they still couldnt see me and hunted me out from my voice and had to pull me rather undignified out. :oops:
Good job I had pants on!
Jo :)
