🫣 How Embarrassing! 😳

When our son was a tot we took him on a day bus tour. He waited till we were on a twist turny country road to announce he needed the loo. The toilet was right in front of us so DH took him. Cubicle was tiny and not built for 2. Son did a poo but there was no loo paper, which was badly needed, so DH sat him on the sink and ran the tap. Problem was door wouldn't lock so door was flying open every time the bus turned revealing a not so pretty sight and DH trying to hold door shut. I should have rushed to help, but was too busy laughing hysterically.
A male relative took his infant daughter to school. They were running late and as they approached the young pretty teacher, his daughter said sorry they were late, dad was having a poo. Exit one red faced dad.

Not mine, but my husband's. He was walking through a crowded Belgian street market carrying two heavy carrier bags of groceries when his jeans started to slide down .(He had forgotten to put on a belt).

Even more fortunately, the old lady walking along behind him saw the funny side of the incident. He was wearing boxers, but all the same felt considerably embarrassed, and thankful it was an old lady behind him rather than two schoolgirls!

My ex was with his daughter in the local shop (where everyone knows everyone)

His girl was about three, and found a little friend to play with.

His daughter and her new friend fell out, and he said she looked like a boy.

She came running up to the queue where dad was, and pointed at him, saying "That's my dad, and he's a boy, because he has a great big willy!"

Lucky you Miss A!

My son and I were at the beach for the day when we both needed the loo fairly urgently. You can imagine the shock after I'd run into the ladies, but he had run into the next door which was the ladies exit and we crashed into each other in the middle. We were laughing so much we almost didn't make it in time.

many years ago it was in London. friend had to go to hospital daily for iron injections. i went with her along with her 4 yr old daughter. At the hospital her daughter insisted on going into the cubicle while Mum had her jab. Left hospital got onto London bus (still had conductors in those days) Bis was packed, we had to sit opposite each other on the long seats. The bus was packed... Suddenly in a very loud voice the child said 'Mummy, why did you take your knickers off and let that man stick his thing in your bottom?' My friends face went scarlet, the whole bus went silent, the child repeated the question, in a very squeaky voice my friend replied, 'Susy. that man was a doctor and that thing was an injection'.. the whole bus breathed out, the conductor walked past and said, 'Cor love, that was a relief. I couldn't stop laughing

At the beginning of the covid outbreak I had to go the doctor. Hubby drove me and parked nearby. When I came out, his car was just outside and I thought he'd moved it to save me walking. I jumped in and a voice said hello. I looked at the driver and it wasn't hubby, just a man in a similar car! I jumped out apologing profusely. I was mortified and literally ran away. The poor man must have thought I was crazy.

Not loo related but DS1 aged about 2 announced to the butcher and customers “ my mummy’s got a baby in her tummy”.

Pregnant with my second child my 3 year old daughter and I were on a bus into town when she announced to the bus "my Mum's having a baby and do you know how it comes out - it's like when you go for a poo"!!

Wandering around B&Q with several service users on lady said that she needed to loo. I turned around to find her having a wee on a display toilet. We made a speedy exit

Some great posts.
I took my daughter who was about 4 at the time into some public loos. The lady in the next cubicle obviously had a tummy ache..... Mummy, why is that lady making so much noise with her bottom?
We made a very fast exit.

I bet the woman made a slow one - when she was sure everyone else had gone!

Not loo related but very embarrassing for my DIL.
When DGC was 2 DIL took them in town. Walking towards them was a person wearing a burka. DGC started pointing and shouting loudly "Mummy mummy there's a post box walking. It can walk. It's a letter box." My DIL was mortified and apologised profusely to the person but they were OK and just laughed.

Another loo related one here.

I suffer from IBS-D which has caused me many embarrassing moments. On this occasion I was shopping in town when I realised I needed a loo very quickly. I knew where the public loos were and they were too far away. I was right outside a Bonmarche store so I dashed in to the checkout counter and asked an assistant where the customer toilets were. She looked me up and down and said they didn't have any. I told her very quickly that it was an emergency and could I please use a staff toilet. She said "No" and started to direct me to the public toilets. I interrupted her and said "It's too far and you will have a very nasty problem on your hands I don't get to a loo right now!" I was getting desperate now. She pointed across the shop and said 'Go up the stairs on the other side of the shop and turn left." As I hurried in that direction she shouted after me "And don't you dare leave that toilet in a mess. Dirty old woman!" The shop was busy with customers and there was instant silence as everyone turned and looked at me, followed by sniggers and giggles. I could feel my neck and face going deep red. Eventually I was able to return to the shop floor and just wanted to escape, but I went to the checkout and asked to speak to the manager. I was told she was at lunch. The assistant who had embarrassed me was behind the counter but quickly disappeared through a side door. I wrote a letter of complaint to the manager but never got a reply. I used to shop in Bonmarche quite often, but never again.

How awful!!!
I live in fear of that kind of situation.
I've has plenty similar, but without anyone as nasty as that shop woman.

Yes MissA, it reduced me to tears and then anger, and has added greatly to the stress of going places. But I'm a big girl, I can cope and I will.

That's the spirit!

years ago my little niece used to spend some time in a neighbours house an came home one day to tell her mum that 'jean' had eyelashes on her bottom. can only guess she'd left the loo door open and the little girl had caught a flash.

Not kiddy related but I managed to get myself locked into one of those loos that look like capsules. I went in and the door closed and a voice said: “evacuate! This unit is about to be cleaned!” . I had visions of Disney like hands in gloves scrubbing the place. And I couldn’t get the door open. I think I screamed. My mother who was waiting outside, laughed so much she almost had an accident but eventually managed to free me. I will be absolutely desperate before I set foot in one again.

One of my big fears, that is.
Or that the door will open too soon, while I'm on the throne.

We took our grandson aged about 3 to a country park. He was adamant that he did NOT need the loo as we passed it. We set off along the trail through the woods. After about 20 minutes he decided he DID need a wee. No problem - lots of trees!!. Grandson adamant he could not do an alfresco wee but needed to return to the toilets. Luckily my quick thinking DH pointed to a tree and declared it to be a "wee tree" - grandson very impressed an all was well. Except everytime we took him out for weeks afterwards he pointed at every tree and demanded to know (in a loud) voice if evry tree we passed was a wee tree!!

Dundee Rep theatre, full house, usual huge queue for loos at half-time. One of my chums suggests we use the disabled loo which opens straight out to where women were queuing. Door locking mechanism decided to fail when I’m on the throne. Extra wide door opens very slowly, my chum, between me and the door, starts moving from side to side and waving her arms about to try and keep me covered. I just had to sit there until the door slowly closed again. People outside all turning away, so as not to look. Both of us crying with laughter 😂
When we exited, no-one would look directly at us but you could tell they were all desperate to laugh. I said something like “well that was fun” and that was it, gales of laughter all around.
My daft dippy chum died a few years later, far too young, is much missed but I have many funny memories of her.

This is about me embarrassing my mum. Age about 4, 1955. We lived in a bungalow and the bathroom directly faced the door. A travelling salesman knocked and asked if mum was in. I said yes, opened the door wide, walked along the hall, opened the bathroom door wide, mum sitting on loo, and pointing at the salesman said That man wants you. Mum screamed and the man disappeared.

Very amusing thread FannyC.
But how rude of Bon Marche staff Happys
