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

FUCKWANKTITSBOLLOKS

I don't have my phone so am using BF's. I just went through her address book and found the number of a mum at the party who I don't know that well. I gave her a ring and she said PFB's mum realised what it was after a few minutes and took it away. She had to take the feather boa off one little girl who then got very upset, luckily they discarded the book as 'can't read' and the handcuffs were taken away before anyone got locked together. She doesn't know what happened with the knickers. However.....admist this confusion lube got left behind. 5 minutes ago some of the children were coming out of the ball pit covered in brown stuff, and they assumed one of PFB's siblings nappy's had leaked. Much worse, it was the lube. The ball pit is now closed and staff are hosing off each ball. Birthday mother is not amused, apparently everyone else is giggling quietly.

I am leaving to go there now. I don't think I will return.

eagerly awaiting an update!

Well! This will be a day to remember! I would love it if I were the mum, and wouldn't want to swap I think (sizes depending).

supernoodlesrock · 04/01/2011 15:27

If she really is that uptight check you get all of your friends presents back, she may have kept the lube and karma sutra to help her unwind after the party. :o

Hilarious, please update!

Right I have written the card:

Dear XXXXXX,

So sorry for the present mix up. It was completely genuine, and I am so embarrassed! Thank you so much for inviting the DT's to PFB's party, they will have had a lovely time, and I hope PFB did too. I hope PFB enjoys his real presents, and see you next week.
