Tell me you've had worse. Walking home, the spoke of a man's umbrella knocked my wig off. Right by the traffic lights. Someone wound his window down to shout "I think you've dropped something, love".

Ok it seems funny now 😀

I once accidentally flashed my boobs at our then next door neighbour - walked into the kitchen topless while he was stood at the sink. Kept the blind down after that.

Some of these are quality 😂😂😂 hilarious

Mine was last year when we was at a VERY busy park, just finished feeding DS and had to put him down to jump up to move some stuff so DP could park the car where we were sat and in full view of everyone full tit on show. I had no idea till I seen the look on my DP face as he’s flapping his arms around trying to tell me my boob is out.
Only had a vest top on, so was 100% obvious Blush

Yesterday just as I walked back to car after the school run, wearing baby in a carrier in my back. I felt a tug at my bum. I yelped and turned around to find a mum pulling my skirt down. Apparently it was totally tucked up into the back of the carrier the whole time I was at school. Blush I'm just glad I wore knickers yesterday. At least my bum is one of my better assets.

creakingknees moonwalked! Crying here Grin

I knew I could rely on you MN lot to make me feel better. And it wasn't that bad. DM called me shortly afterwards and told her. She said "that's nothing, I have a prolapsed bowel. I know which I'd prefer".

Interesting analogy.

My brother was on the bus, standing up waiting for his stop, suddenly the bus stopped abruptly, my brother lost his balance and looking for something to steady himself, he accidentally grabbed a woman's wig, which he pushed off her head.

OP this thread is brilliant, cheered me up no end Grin

I once spent several hours walking around canary wharf with a huge bright pink hair curler stuck to my back.

Many years ago, when my youngest DS was tiny, we were having a total house renovation done. Place was crawling with workmen of every variety. During one site meeting, I'd been there some while when one of the plumbers (whose wife had just had a baby, so was a bit more au fait with things related) came up to me and muttered under his breath "hey missus, think your baby needs feeding" with a nod to my chest area. Plain pink sweatshirt with two huge wet patches... Unmissable. To this day I cringe thinking about it. Baby is now 25.

In a hotel in a UK city centre 4 floors up. Woke up, showered got undies on and decided to throw back the curtains to check out the weather. Whip the back out curtains back ( they were on a zippy rail thingy) to the far side of the floor to ceiling window to admire the view, just as a double decker bus full of morning commuters pulled up outside. A couple of them waved as I dove for the floor. Hadn't realised that the side of the hotel was on a steep hill, so even though I thought I was high up the road outside rose up...

Only a couple of weeks ago - meeting fairly new BF's friends for the first time and determined to make a good impression... We were in the garden enjoying a glass of wine before lunch and friend's toddler wandered off for a few minutes. She'd gone back into the house and found her way into the bedroom. Friend came downstairs looking rather red faced saying that she'd found toddler with something that was probably not suitable for her to be playing with and she'd put it back on the bedside cabinet Blush. We were left wondering whether it was the lube, the blindfold, one of 3 vibrators or the restraints?

Once when I was younger and carefree, I was happily giving it my all to Tina Turners 'Proud Mary' in a club, quite intoxicated. As I threw my head foreword, my weave which was one of them clamp ones, came flying out and hit the ground. Done a subtle slut drop to pick it up and put it back in. Thought I'd got away with it until I seen my mate literally rolling round the podium we was dancing on, in tears. Still can't hear that song without grabbing my hair Blush

Hopeygoflightly · 19/06/2019 11:30

Got another one... striding confidently through the train station one rainy morning in snazzy new boots & mac heading for a client meeting, and looking the dogs bollocks I thought, front foot ( shiny new sole on boot...) went skidding forward and I ended up doing an impromptu splits in the middle of the station. I can't do the splits. Bag went flying, I went flying with a large yelp before literally rolling myself into a sitting position and limped off with the help of some passersby. Ended up walking into the client like John Wayne after he'd been on a horse for a week...

My mum yelled at my little brother to come back when he ran ahead in the street, her false teeth flew out and landed further up the pavement. Oh how we laughed...….

Bluntness100 · 19/06/2019 11:34

Good for you in keeping a sense of humour. I've so many.

At a fancy dress party and dressed as cleopatra and dancing, my toga sheet fell down and my left boob popped out. Put it back, convinced myself no one had seen, my friend helps with said convincing, so I carry on dancing,,,,and the next day getting the train for work and a bloke bellows over the busy platform "I know you. You're the girl whose left tit popped out on thr dance floor last night!!!".

Yeah, thanks mate, I guess people did see after all, 🤫

Hopeygoflightly · 19/06/2019 11:37

These frosted glass stories have reminded me - the neighbours across the road have a frosted bathroom window just below knee height to anyone in the bathroom. You can see everything - including her very 70's healthy bush and anyone sitting on the loo. Lived opp them 10 years and still have had the nerve to tell them...

Hopeygoflightly · 19/06/2019 11:37

haven't had the nerve!

Nameisthegame · 19/06/2019 11:39

I was sitting on on my bf lap in the park probably for 10 min (cringing at what a gross show teen I was) turns out I’d started a super heavy period and bled on his jeans! He wasn’t happy kept trying to wipe it off 😱 I said it was dirt...mortified 15 year old.

Fink · 19/06/2019 11:40

I was in a water park recently and a young woman's weave came off her head as she came down a slide. It was floating separately from her (while her friend collapsed with laughter), looking like a rat in the water! The lifeguard had to fish it out and hand it back to her. She tried to style it out, poor thing, but she must have been mortified.

Lauren83 · 19/06/2019 11:44

I feel for you, I was walking past a load of road works in the summer and had one of those adhesive heat pads on my back as I had pulled it, the adhesive must have melted and it unstuck itself and fell out of the back of my dress and hit the floor and one of the workman shouted 'oi love your fanny pad has come out' everyone turned and looked at me and at the pad on the floor!

Oh God OP that's my worst nightmare Blush

My most embarrassing moment was when I had an induction for an amazing board I was joining. I wanted to make a great impression so wore my best light tan pencil skirt. Induction with senior management and board chair went great: I was charming, relaxed, enjoying myself. Fantastic, I thought. Then was introduced to the staff, went round the commercial office shaking hands with everyone. Perfect... this couldn't have gone better. Then tour of the grounds, with CEO opening the many doors for me so I was walking ahead. What a gentleman...I couldn't be happier with how things went.

As I walked back to my car I instinctively brushed my hand on my skirt and felt wet. Oh no, must have sat in water (I thought), then I looked at my hand. Bright red. Horrified I rushed to the car, and took my tan skirt off. It was pretty much all bright red, soaked through on the back from arse to hem. My heavy day 1 flow had come a couple of days earlier than expected. I was mortified, I didn't know what to do but I called my mum and cried (to this day still haven't told my husband as was too embarrassed). I couldn't stop thinking of all the people that must have seen me and been too embarrassed to tell the new board member swanning around the office that her skirt was covered in blood. That was my amazing first impression. Bloody skirt.

I never mentioned it and no one has ever mentioned it since but anytime I am on the premises it's all I can think of. I am certainly less swanny now... been brought down to the right peg for sure.
