I can't believe what DS just did. I'm cringing with shame.

I was on the final leg of bedtime (DD goes to bed at about 6.30 and DS at about 7.15). I had sent DS to his room to put his pajamas on while I helped DD brush her teeth.

Then there was a knock on the door. There was a very nice young man outside with a newspaper and a slightly damp t-shirt who had come to tell me that DS had just wee'd on him from the window. DS's bedroom window is directly above his balcony.

He was very understanding about it, I apologised profusely and then we both had silent giggles before I put my stern-mummy face on and fetched DS.

DS was already in tears when I called him, and came to the door and apologised when I asked him to. He has now been sent to bed early and I have locked his windows (I know, stable door and already-bolted horse).

We are moving soon and will be in a house instead of a flat, I can't wait!

Tell it's just a phase and this too shall pass (he's nearly 6 so really ought to know better IMO). I need to know that other DC have done this and not grown up into delinquents.

I'm so embarassed.

PMSL - that's soooooo funny!

bobbiewickham · 20/05/2010 19:19

Hilarious.

As long as he's not 14

Bicnod · 20/05/2010 19:20

ROFL

I just recounted this story to DH and DH's friend who he's on the phone to and they both laughed too.

Sorry for your shame but hahahahahahaaaaa

DecorHate · 20/05/2010 19:20

Was he actually aiming for your neighbour or was that bit accidental??

You still moving to Dublin?

Yes Decor, possibly moving to Dublin tomorrow morning, such is my shame.

We are going over next week to look at houses again as the house we were buying has unfortunately fallen through.

I didn't ask DS whether he was aiming for the man.

That is very funny

but I would have been more impressed if your dd had done it as it would take much better aim

Lifeinagoldfishbowl · 20/05/2010 19:35

pmsl - or maybe that should be out the window

is it bad that I love it

KnickKnack · 20/05/2010 19:37

That's hilarious Will you be able to look the poor man in the face tomorrow morning?!

Give your neighbour an umbrella as a pisspeace-offering.

IMoveTheStars · 20/05/2010 19:40

that's brilliant Oh, it could have been SO much worse (think other bodily fluids). Make sure you remind him of it in about 10 years time

My sisters charming upstairs neighbor barfed pink cocktail puke all over her patio.

bran · 20/05/2010 19:45

Coppertop - I am crying with laughter at the umbrella idea.

KnickKnack - I'm hoping I won't bump into him for a long while. He's a child-free working man and I'm a SAHM, we have very different schedules.

I have just peered out of the sitting room window and there is a mop propped up againsr the rail on his balcony.

Am practically crying with laughter! Much cheered up my rather dull evening

CharlieBoo · 20/05/2010 20:58

Oh that is sooooooo funny I love it.

CoupleofKooks · 20/05/2010 21:02

oh dear

the other week we took ds1 with some friends to a restaurant that had a mezzanine upstairs bit, where they seated us
ds1 decided to lean over and spit into the downstairs bit
he is 7
he says he "wanted to see what would happen"
thank god the staff were very nice about it!!
as you say, the shame of it

FromGirders · 20/05/2010 21:06

That is sooo funny. I'm killing myself at the image of you and your damp neighbour trying to keep straight faces. sounds like he saw the funny side too :-D

MitsubishiWarrioress · 20/05/2010 21:07

Also crying with laughter here... that is just so priceless

Every time I read the OP it gets funnier...

Thank you so much !

Fantastic! Thank you for brightening my evening.

Just one question - have you ever told him it's not ok to wee out of the window? No? Well who can blame him then?
