A daft thing you've done recently

I was at the cinema watching the film of the stage show SIX, it was amazing. I was so caught up in the show that when the audience on the film clapped so did I. It was very embarrassing as I was the only one in the cinema to do it, so I spent the rest of the film with my arms folded so it didn't happen again.

Came to Jersey in tropical storm season - nearly got my legs chopped off this morning when the car door blew shut as I was about to get out.

I have been known on more than one occasion to my utter embarrassment to attempt to change the channel on the tv using the telephone handset. Should I be worried ?

I went to work one day with odd shoes, one heeled and one flat. If that wasn’t bad enough my skirt was inside out as well!

I am always a bit nervous when I take our tabby cat to the vet, but the receptionist is lovely and chats away to calm me down. Much relieved after a bit of minor treatment I was paying and chatting away when I realised I was a bit late. Picked up the cat basket, jumped in the car and arrived home only to find a very puzzled black and white cat staring out at me through the bars. I had picked up the basket of the person next to me in the queue. Luckily Mr Black and White was very chilled out, as was his owner.

I've done that too. More than once!

Left my handbag with debit card and phone in Sainsbury's. Didn't notice until I got home. Fortunately a member of staff looked after it so I got it back intact.

Magenta8 Your post has had me howling laughing !!

2 this afternoon - new pair of sunglasses, still folded, stood in front of the mirror, held them up to my eyes then wondered why I couldn‘t see

took 2 baps from the freezer, looking forward to egg and cress, then announced, I can’t use these they must be stale, feel how hard they are

daft

I called to the chap on the desk at my David Lloyd that my membership card wasn’t letting me in.

He came over, took a look and said, ‘That’s because you’re trying to get in with your British Museum membership card.’
(Both in my Apple wallet. )

He did add that I wasn’t the only one!

On a very hot day a couple of weeks ago I was going to visit a friend that lives round the corner, so I was going to wear my Crocs.

As my feet were a bit sweaty, I hastily puffed a large amount of talc in each Croc. As I walked along the street a couple of neighbours looked rather strangely at me and when I looked down I found my Crocs were puffing out large clouds of talc through the hole and it looked like my feet were on fire.

That sounds like fun to do on purpose. I will mention this to DGS

Years ago but I unlocked and got into a car in the supermarket (old car not with remote lock). Couldn't work out why the key didn't fit the ignition, then realised I'd got into someone else's car, the same colour as mine and parked a couple of bays away from mine! Oops!

Collected a friend from the airport in the dark and loaded up the Renault with her motley collection of bags etc, only realising were in the wrong car as I tried to drive off. We hastily moved ourselves and our stuff into the correct car and we're about to drive off when my friend realised one of her carrier bags was missing.... I nipped back to find the owner of the car holding the bag at arms length in confusion. Having listened to my garbled apology, she demanded to know what colour my car was. On learning it was pale gold, she haughtily informed me: "Well, mine is GREEN, revved up her car and a screeched off before I could point out that all cars are gray at night!....

Oh, I have never laughed out loud so much at any GN thread.

Thank you everyone. My top laugh was requesting the plumber to sort your pipework out, oh my the embarrassment...🤣

I'm doing bits and bobs all the time as mentioned by others.

I can top this...My Mother went to a family funeral, and after being at the wake , she went up to the bereaved and said 'Thanks, I've really enjoyed it' !!! She was soooo embarassed.

I'm in fits of laughter here at all of your replies!

When I was working in Retail and I was on till duty, for some reason I could never explain, several times when I went to press the till buttons, I opened the under-shelf drawer instead, then realised quickly! A male colleague also did the same; he couldn't explain either!

At home, I accidentally bang into a doorknob, chair, whatever, then say sorry to it!

Some time back I was on our local bus when an elderly lady ( as I am ) got on . Instead of her bus pass she gave the driver her house keys. The driver looked at her and said " Sorry love as you can see I am working " . As she left to go to her seat he added " But I finish at 4 pm to-day "

🤣

keep em coming!
