Teacher present - the horror story

Needtoemigrate · 17/07/2014 14:57

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 ??

Pissing myself op! Thanks for the laughs.

To make you feel better. I used to iron for Dhs family - I was doing their ironing one day and come across my knickers- unwashed!

I will never know if it was a pair from that week, or if they had actually been handed over to them along with the previous weeks ironed clothes...

I have never quite gotten over this.

On behalf of all teachers can I thank your for an awesome present Grin I have always said that it is the thought that counts and that the unusual gifts are the ones that stay in your memory!

Good point Needto.

I don't suppose they are planning on doing "Jesus Christ Superstar" next Easter? She'd be a shoo-in for Mary Magdelene.......

BlackeyedSusan · 17/07/2014 21:17

email, apologise, blame your smallest child and their desire to hide things in bags. or your brothers idea of a joke. make up a brother, cousin other random relative....

GenerationX2 · 17/07/2014 21:20

Wait - sorry if I missed this bit - but how did you find out that the gift contained your knickers and did you get them back? Grin

Needtoemigrate · 17/07/2014 21:23

My dd handed them to me - in the school yard Blush yes he opened gift bag in class and they were nicely tucked inside along with the booze.

Need to keeps giving. This story needs to go down in your family history and to be bought up when your dd gets married. (If you ok with)

Needtoemigrate · 17/07/2014 21:48

Grin - nothing else to say. Hahahahahahaha

TortoiseUpATreeAgain · 17/07/2014 22:12

Tell all the other mums that you heard it happened to someone, but you don't know who.

Then if any of them hear a rumour that it was you they'll confidently say no, couldn't have been, Needto told me that she didn't know who it was but was trying to find out.

Needtoemigrate · 17/07/2014 22:18

Ooh good plan - I ll do it just before the removal can comes to help me move.

No , didn't bother with disguise - thought I d manage to sneak in and out unnoticed .....,didn't plan on several of the teachers standing there with a big smirky hi at me - ah well, they always comment on my kids having fantastic dry sense of humour , guess that's the reason - loose knickered mum Grin
