Teacher present - the horror story

I need to emigrate - seriously. I thought I was super organised, present in, gift bagged and in the corner of my room weeks ago. Dd took in today for her teacher- along with a pair of mislaid knickers tucked nicely in the bag , serves me right for using floor as giant washing basket but oh the shame - especially as the teacher in question is a 25 ish year old male.
My dd is mortified, I could hide forever and still 1 more day of school to go .... Will I be fined if we break up early ??

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Were they, ya know, CLEAN????

My friend greeted the DCs (male) teacher, who was carrying a big plastic container up the path, with the immortal words, "My, that's a very big lunchbox!"

I accompanied my daughter to John Lewis to return a handbag. Unfortunately she had stuffed it with old knickers to see how it looked when full. The shop assistants face was a picture. (so was mine)

You'll know if he's told the story in the staffroom he definitely has if they all start applauding when you walk up to the gates tomorrow.

I would go with big sunglasses, big floppy hat, big scarf, put on a false accent and tell everyone you're the new au pair, Needtoemigrate has taken a new job with very long hours and won't be seen around school anymore.

Aaah bless you! Think the best thing you can do is laugh it off and check all bags thoroughly from now on! At least they weren't grim grey grannies!
Bruins that is fantastic!!!

Really funny also liked the removal of something big and flappy story. If your dc gets a good school report we will all know why

It really depends whether he found your smalls in his classroom or on the coffee table in the staff room, surrounded by colleagues at break time.... You may have made their day.

If you find yourself being pointed out to any staff who don't know you, then he has told! Not there's the remotest chance he would keep quiet. I bet they laughed all day!
