Embarrasing Moments.
 
Things you said or did and wished you hadn't.

I was having my lunchtime pint and chip butty in one of the pubs in Wolverhampton.
Whilst returning my glass to the bar I accidentally nudged a shapely blonde, in tight jeans and long golden hair all the way down her back.

Being a gentleman, I said "sorry love", and the reply came back in a quiet but deep male voice "sorrite", (translated as it's alright).

Making a hasty retreat to the exit I heard his companion, probably his wife, say "See, I told you you should have had your haircut"

I had a similar "event"

It happened under my time in the military my friends and I was in some local pub/discotheque. During my visit there I noticed a young blonde woman good looking.

Every time I was at the desk to order a new drink I noticed her and we exhanged eye contact.

Gee maybe I'm lucky and......

Later in the evening I had to visit the men's room and just I opened the door, there stood on two legs holding his.... my blonde good looking woman....

I had nightmares for a whole month...what if.....

Is this share your awkward transvestite encounters?
I'm possibly still a person of interest in Luxemburg after my encounter with a transvestite bartender.

I knew she was a man or that he was a woman the entire time. Only she made good drinks and my goal for the evening was a bit of heavy intoxication and a visit to the local broth...I mean zoo. Well seems this lady boy bartender put some manner of drug in my drink as I went on a really interesting trip luckly my pals drinks had not been laced so they keep me somewhat contained. I'm told that I destroyed a city police camera which ended a rather interesting evening at the zoo.

The Luxemburg law enforcement never got me for their camera thanks to my cat like skills of evasion which I honed sneaking off base in Turkey. That is another interesting series of tales suffice it to say you can find a lot to do in Istanbul.

Was in a Bar once with friends from High School.
A good looking lady was interested in me but I didn't know her name at the time.
We guys started talking about the girls that were beatches.
I named one I hated alot.
The drink in my face just seconds after that told me who the Good looking Lady was!!

How to p.ss people off in a pub.
On the way home from work.. stop at the pub to have a beer.
A few beers later, after talking to this 'middle aged' couple about things in general that drinkers talk about... she asked me.
'We're part of a swinging club, would you and your wife like to join ?'

Mann!!.. I was so shocked I just blurted out... "No ways !! that's a one way trip to 'crab-city' "
They denied this.. I back-pedalled, trying to recover the apparent insult I'd just publically announced.. and they finished their drinks and left.

Afterwards I thought .. 'Tossers, if they cannot take criticism.. '
Maybe I should have told them that my private life is a personal thing and I'm not into voyeurism.

40 odd years ago when I was a keen cyclist, I accidentally ended up on the A38(M) motorway, (prohibited to cyclists for the benefit of non UK readers), as I was slip-streaming a coach.

Head down over the handlebars and legs pumping hard, I was bowling along at about 30mph, when I missed the turn-off for non-motorway traffic, and found myself in the outside lane.
Luckily it was a quiet time of day and nothing serious happened.

I suppose Jimbuna would have thought "now, there's an arresting sight" :woot:

Some years ago (thankfully) my wife's friend told her during a phone conversation how she was preparing to return to an abusive partner. I pronounced loudly upon her, saying that she was "odd" (among other things). My wife was telling me not to be so harsh when she discovered that the line to her friend's phone was still live: she'd heard every word. "I'm glad someone's still on my side", the girl said before hanging up.:oops::oops::oops:

More likely "I wonder how long I'll be controlling oncoming traffic whilst the body snatchers are picking up the pieces and tidying the area up"? :)

Another instance from my cycling days.

Me and another cycling mate went for a ride down a disused colliery line near where we lived.
Bostin for a pee, I had a quick look round in both directions along the path to make sure nobody was coming, unzipped and then started to pee.

I had a strange sensation that I was being watched, and on raising my head skywards to the top of the steep bank that bordered the path, there was a young couple watching this torrent about 10 feet below them.

The urgent need to pee suddenly abated, I just muttered a few embarrassed words and quickly got back on the bike.

Of course, my mate thought it was hilarious.

Of course. That's what friends are for.

I know Steve, even if your own memory fades, you can always rely on your mates to come up with some moment you'd rather forget.

Like the time, a group of us went to the preserved Severn Valley Railway line at Arley.

I poked my head over the bridge just as a steam train was passing underneath.
I caught the full force of the exhaust from the chimney.
I turned round to face my mates who were already in stitches at my black face.
Even more raucous laughter when I took my glasses of, and was immediately referred to as Sooty (a tv glove puppet from them days).

Years ago cheating on my girlfriend with my aerobics instructor in my second story apt where we lived together. She pulled up and fast thinking I got the girl into the AC return, opened it up, moved filter and in she went...closed. It was built into a closet with sheetrock....I couldn't get my gf to leave and she would cut ac down and I would cut it up....I guess almost a hour past and the girl came out......it wasn't fun....

Worse, after that break up, got back together and got married.....didn't last long either......The stupidity of youth......

Cycling is it?

I used to help my Mum out when she worked as a cleaner at the local bird reserves visitor center, it was an early morning get up but the journey there through the woodlands was stunning. She drove a moped and I cycled, obviously since she was capable of higher speeds than my very out of shape body could propel me, she'd go on ahead and wait for me to catch up.
Well, one day on one of those catching up points, I hit a small bump in the road which was enough to unbalance me and put me on the deck. Nothing too serious, and I was up and going again in short order and we had a good laugh about it.
The next day, we approached the same point and she turns to me and says "Now don't fall off this time" and I, chagrined replied "Yeah, yeah, yeah." and cycled off...and promptly crashed in exactly the same bloody spot. :/\\!!
