Anyone after a cheap laugh at my expense?

My parents sent us a cheque in the post, just arrived today.
DH said, "I can't pay this in via the banking app; it's too big."
I said, "But it's just a normal sized cheque, surely?"
DH: "No, the amount of money it's for is too high - you cant pay that much in online!"

D'oh! 🤦‍♀️😳 😅😅

I could introduce you to a few!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Whoops… I quoted the post about air letters, thinking about when we used to send them to overseas relatives (thin blue paper) but then wrote something unrelated🤦‍♀️

I'be had a stroke. At first I kept getting freaked out about a strange hand being in bed with me, but over the past year I've learnt that it's mine & not to panic! It's still weird though 😂

Bloody hell 😂😂😂

I couldn't remember the name for them. Unbelievably there are some for sale on ebay, including a pack with prepaid UK postage anywhere from 1990!

I was replying to my friend the other day, who had asked me to pop in and feed her dog, and that she’d leave the back door open so it could go out for a wee when it wanted.

My reply was ‘of course! Remind me what the code is for your key safe?’

I’d make a shit burglar😂

If it's any consolation at all, I thought the exact same as you. I read "size" as the physical size of the cheque, not the amount... 😵‍💫🤦🏾

My brother was doing some training in Canada for 2 weeks. Mentioned it to my ex then I said do you think it will be hot? 😂😂😂 Yeah I know it can get warm in Canada. But he was going over winter.

Reminds me of the time a work colleague told me that 'some bastard' nicked her two hundred pound carp from her home.
I puzzled for hours on how TF did she store such a huge fish and where. Was it in a massive pond or industrial sized freezer?
It wasn't till I got home and told DH I discovered that the 200 was £££ and not Lbs.
It had been a long shift though.

GM TV once spent the entire time they were on air reporting that 50% of NHS hospitals were below average.

As a student living in my first house share, I went to the electricity board shop (remeber them?) to tell them our gas central heating wasn’t working.

Im attempting to grow pumpkins. Instructions said to grow them on the edge ... I couldn't work this out and thought it would be weird to grown them right on the edge of the pot 🥴 turns out it's means put the flat seed on its edge. My parents found my stupidity amusing 😆

I've done that whilst reading the paper I tried to expand the photo .
I've mistakenly chewed foam ear plugs thinking they were haribo worst bit they were used🤮🤣

Me too! 😳 Got whistled at by the lifeguard.

No idea why you posted this other than to be unkind

You've got to wonder if they read about the OP struggles.
Some of these stories are ace.😁

Presuming the back door opens onto a secured garden not seeing what's wrong with this?

Who pissed in your cereal this morning?!

🤣🤣🤣

I forgot about airmail letters do you remember the all in one kind you wrote on one side and folded it into an envelope I remember getting penpal letters that way as a child

We'd just arrived at a caravan park for our holiday. I decided to pop out in the car to the shop. On the way back I was a bit worried that I wouldn't remember which caravan was ours but I thought, I'll just look out for our car. Only problem was I was driving it

My grandmother left me outside a shop in my pram too and walked home. It was in the days when people left their babies in prams outside the front door for fresh air (terraced house). Everyone commented on how good I was being (not usual apparently) and how long I was sleeping, until my mother went out to bring me in and screamed. At first they thought someone had walked off with the pram, but then they questioned Nanna and legged it back to the shop where the bewildered staff and some regular customers had been passing a screaming infant around for quite some time.

Aahh, those were the days!

At least that wasn’t as bad as me - I left 10 day old dd1 in her pram in Boots, having completely forgotten that I had a baby. It was at least 10 minutes before it dawned - I was meeting my Dm whose aghast ‘Where the baby?’ sent me charging back in a panic in case anyone had nicked her…

DH and I were at the cinema once, first time I had been in years and years.
At one stage the background music was getting louder and louder.
I started rummaging around with my hands and looking on my seat and the empty seat beside me, realised what I was doing and stopped.
DH nudged me while trying to laugh quietly and said
"You were looking for the remote to lower the volume weren't you???????"
😳
