To tell DH I have changed my mind and we have got to move house?

Have namechanged as am mortified enough.

Will try to keep this as short as I can.

It's DH's birthday tomorrow. Like a lot of blokes, he's hard to buy for so what I tend to do is dress up in a "sexy" (in the eye of the beholder!) outfit, and we have a nice night in.

I had a particular outfit in mind and couldn't find one on the website I used last year, so I googled it, found a website with it on, ordered it (and a couple of other things), and paid extra for express delivery as I'd left it a bit late.

The doorbell rang this morning and on the step was my [male] neighbour, with a parcel. He said "I thought I'd drop this round and refund you the postage."

I had no idea what he was talking about, I must have looked totally blank.

He looked puzzled and walked off, but walking away he said "if you need to change anything, that's no problem."

When I opened it, it was my stuff. The return address on the ticket inside is his address, but I have just checked the website and it's not on there.

I am just so fucking mortified. I know loads of people run internet businesses from home and I knew he worked from home but what are the fucking ODDS?

DH and I have been talking about moving house but decided last week not to bother. I want to ring him at work and say I have changed my mind - we are moving NOW.

Brilliant line! DH says he asked for that, seriously!!

Don't worry . . . he doesn't get seriously embarrassed, as I said before (unlike me).

He had to be circumcised at the age of 14. And got referred to a paediatrician. Who was female and sexy (sez he). With an assistant nurse who was like Barbara Windsor (this was a long time ago). And his mum went with him to the first appointment. . .

Since that day, he and Mr Embarrasment have been total strangers, he tells me.

Your neighbour seems a decent bloke, I would relax. I agree he is probably mortified and positively cringing. You should order a couple of butt plugs, actually, to make up for it.

To be honest, this is not the worst.

I have possibly a worse story. I hid my erm, toys and lubricants etc, in a pink 35 l mountain back pack under our bed, as we were "lending" our house to the au pairs family while we went on holiday, in case her parents decided to go through our drawers. Well, I forgot all about it, not being a "needy gal" and then we started packing to move house. My husband found the backpack, thought it was empty, (it looked empty, I didnt have a lot of toys) so he gave it to a colleague who was visiting, and needed more bags as he was going home..... He gave it to him WITH contents.....
