I should have stayed at home today, shouldn't I! 🤣

Dh & went into town, for a wander around a new art gallery and some lunch.

When we got there he popped into a shop, so I sat on a bench with our takeaway coffees and waited. Suddenly a man sat on the other end of my bench, so heavily that the coffee closest to me went sideways, drenching my trousers (summer black & white checked). Great!! I did what I could with wet wipes but you could still see it.

After seeing the gallery we had lunch, I had garlic prawns. Put my fork into a cooked prawn and garlic oil burst out of it, yes, all over my top which was light grey with pink detail. By then I looked an absolute mess, although the meal was nice!

For the walk home I put my jacket on even though it's a hot day, to hide all the stains. Dh kept laughing, it could only happen to me!!

It was "one of those days"! My daughter and I went out for a sneaky Nandos a little while ago, she shook the ketchup bottle without checking the lid and was wearing a light top... Well, you can guess the rest!

That’s me! I attract spills 🤣

Glad it's not just me, and it's always on a day you see several people you know!

I'm home now, freshly showered and clothes in washing machine. Not planning on going anywhere else today! 🤣

Sounds like one of those days! At least you seem to have still been able to enjoy the bits that went right and are home safely now.

FuzzyWolf, yes exactly, the rest of the day was lovely! 🙂

I have just spilled coffee down my top. God knows how I missed my big mouth.

So frustrating when that happens! 😀
