Horrible horrible present mix up involving sex toys. I have to go back in an hour.

I just met my best friend for a coffee, to give her her 30th Birthday present before she goes off for a childfree sexfest week in Mauritius with her DH as a 30th Birthday present Envy. I got her a pair of very naughty Agent Provocateur, knickers, karma sutra guide, hand cuffs, a feather boa, and this chocolatey lube stuff .I hasten to add this was intended as a joke, I actually got her a day at a spa. She unwrapped a boys top from Zara Kids, a small puzzle and a power ranger action doll thingy.

This means the 4 year old boy whose party my DT'S are at has unwrapped her present. Shock Shock Shock Shock Shock. I know for a fact it has been opened as there had been a small mix up with times, and they had to wait 10 minutes to be allowed into the soft play, and so when I was leaving the birthday boy's mum was calling them over to open presents to pass the time.

WHY did I use identical wrapping paper? But more importantly what do I do when I go to fetch them in an hour? Even worse, the whole of their nursery room was invited, plus a few other friends, the majority of which are there. Doubly doubly worse, I was the only mum/nanny to leave, so they will all know.

HELP

Grin Even if it isnt true, tis good for a giggle!

LoopyLoopsOfSparklyFairyLights · 04/01/2011 16:03

Ah, it was looking so likely to be true until that last post. :( Oh well, kept me amused for a few minutes.

Nothing at all constructive to add just Grin Grin Grin

I think you need to calm down. You only bought the sex stuff. It wasn't like they were for you (though obviously fine if they were since you appear to be a grown up). Birthday mother will just be assuming that everyone will talk about the sex presents and not the party that cost oodles so will calm down in a few weeks.

MrsYamada · 04/01/2011 15:55

I so want this to be true. Grin

The only way this could be funnier would be if I was picking up one of my kids from a soft play party about now.

theevildead2 · 04/01/2011 15:55

See I knew it was a wind up when someone claimed to buy their mate Agent Provacateur knickers and sex toys. I don't like anyone enough to spend 50-100£ on a pair of pants.

Also if I had 2 gifts to give out and one was full of sex toys and one was for a child.. I'd label them.

Milngavie · 04/01/2011 15:53

Even if this isn't true (but I so hope it is) ROFL!

GoldFrakkincenseAndMyrrh · 04/01/2011 15:52

Surely here has to be another MNer at that party to confirm/deny....

HarkTheTragicalyHipHeraldAngel · 04/01/2011 15:51

Not sure if I believe this now!

Even so tis very funny Grin

please say that this is true.

Or a genius at light-hearted trollery!

I have been howling with laughter, sorry Bambi, if it's for real.Grin

nickelbabyjesus · 04/01/2011 15:49

I love the way that the brown stuff being lube is worse than it being a leaky nappy Grin

oh dear

if it makes you feel any better, OP, I once sent a rude book to a customer instead of a toy (and a toy to the customer awaiting the rude book). Toy recipient was gracious, rude book recipient was not happy - apparently 6yo DD opened it as it was for her little brother. Blush.
i was mortified.
(item they received was book-shaped, though - can only assume parent forgot what pressie he'd bought...)

jumpingjackhash · 04/01/2011 15:48

PMSL - true or not, the very thought of this has brightened my first day back at work post-Christmas!

glastocat · 04/01/2011 15:48

This can't be for real, but if it is, it's amazing! Grin

ChippyMinton · 04/01/2011 15:47

Totally plausible up to the ball pit. Those things never get cleaned Grin

scarletbegonia · 04/01/2011 15:44

droves · 04/01/2011 15:43

MilkNoSugarPlease · 04/01/2011 15:43

I'll find some information on emigrating for you :o

ShatnersBassoon · 04/01/2011 15:42

Oh dear, I think the pudding has been well and truly over-egged.

gregssausageroll · 04/01/2011 15:42

Sounded funny until the ball pit! I smell a wind up!

Boudoiricca · 04/01/2011 15:41

Good one. You had me going up to here Biscuit

DooinMeCleanin · 04/01/2011 15:40
Grin

You'll laugh about this in a few hundred years op.

Good luck with the collection. I'd be sending my sister instead.

nigglewiggle · 04/01/2011 15:40

Is this a plotline from the next series of Vicar of Dibley? Wink

stealthsquiggle · 04/01/2011 15:39

OMG.

Is moving house/school/county/country an option?
