such an addict i am, telling you such things..

went to a family wedding, all tarted up in this silver sari, with lots of embroidery on. hair all open and straightened, lots of face paint. three kids in tow, also tarted up. dh too. managed to threaten them into eating some food. went to the toilets....... and
blood, red red blood everywhere. no tampons, no pads, and no knickers on either.
and no machine in there either.
aaaaarrrrrgggggggghhhhh.

eventually borrowed a pad off a complete stranger in the third toilet i visited. and then had to waddle round, hoping it wouldn t fall down. and then they started dancing..........

came home alive, and not publicly humiliated fortunately.

well, various reasons.
sometimes i just dont bother when wearing a sari coz its so long, no onne can see my shoes, let aloong anything further up. also, washing machine not working, so no clean underwear, except horrible thongy thing that i dont like.

Ooh, not good.

I discovered that I was flooding on the way to the train station to get the train home the other month. Managed to stuff a couple of hankies down my pants while going down the stairs .

No time to find a chemists, no working toilets at station (no idea if any machines either). On the train, the toilet was massively overflowing and big notice on door (I had to look just in case it wasn't that bad really) Stood up all the way home, on train and bus - everyone kept pointing out that there were seats, I was trying to keep my legs crossed. Told all to lovely woman on the train after she'd budged up to make room for me about the tenth time - and thought she was going to tell all to the conductor who she turned out to be great friends with.

Not a patch on your story I'm afraid but the best I could do at short notice.

you need whoever it is that has a bucket load of poo horror stories - now who is it?? Oh, it's joash - where is she nowadays?

spidermama · 18/09/2005 22:38

Can you laugh about it yet stitch?
This might help...
My dh was in a play in the West End last year and he split his trousers, really early on, right up the arse. The show was underway and there was nothing he could do about it. This was a show with no interval and where he had to be on stage throughout, so no going into the wings to change.
He did the entire show at funny angles so as to hide his shabby old pants through the tear.

By the way, his mum came on very heavily at our wedding (spookily) and was absent for an hour before the reception while she went to hotel room to clean up and change.

stitch · 18/09/2005 22:38

yorkie....... ouch. i hope they were at least really nice knickers?
i once remember year 11 boys saying something about me, whilst i was writing something on the board, adn i realised my butt was at eyelevel for them. hastily put suit jacket back on

Sorry stitch I just wondered as i never feel comfortable going commando. I nearlly had an incident at work. I usually know when its coming and wake up and find its time for a Tampax. But I was at work and went to loo after feeling a bit warm and damp. Argh full flow and nothing in my bag. Waddled out and thankfully had right coins for machine, worse bit was that is was a lilet (hate them) and a huge pad with wings. I thought I best use the pad too as it was very heavy and pants were a bit damp already plus light check trousers. How do you wrap huge pad with wings round a thong ?.

NannyL · 18/09/2005 22:44

STITCH..... HOW on earth did u keep a pad in place without knickers???

OMG that IS embarrasing BTW!!!

MrsWednesday · 18/09/2005 22:44

I was at my in-laws today and needed to go to the loo (big Sunday lunch, all that food had a bad effect on my bowels ). DH went upstairs a few minutes later for the same reason and immediately came downstairs to accuse the kids (my DS and his two cousins) of stuffing something down the loo because the toilet was now blocked. The kids looked upset and denied all knowledge of any wrong-doing, so I had to own up to having just been for a massive poo. Then the whole family, kids, the ILs and everyone all trotted off upstairs to unblock the toilet. I'm blushing even typing this.

Will that do?

eee, cant stand thong things. sorry, just not comfy with them.
hate accidents, thought they would all be over soon after puberty, but they start again after babies dont htey?
i dont wear them when wearing a shalwar kameez, so am quite used to it really. if anything, if ind them too restrictive, but obviously with trousers jeans they have to be worn. and i dont really wear short skirts. just whatyoure used to reaally.

nanny, big fat lardy thighs helped. along with putting the gluey bits of the wings against skin. but mostly just prayers.

went to hospital the other day for first appointment about a bottom problem. Doc took a look, nuttered about piles and injections. Next thing I knew he was injecting them to make them shrink. Took only seconds but when he finished he said it might bleed for a bit and the nurse handed me a tiny bit of gauze! Trouble was I had gone a bit smart and worn my pale beige linen trousers...

Just about managed to get home without stining them!

zippy539 · 18/09/2005 23:20

After child no 2. I went for a smear - hate them and was in a bit of a state as nurse always seems to poke about down there for ages. Anyway, the nurse does some initial brief footering about then moves away to other end of room, leaving me naked from waist down and legs akimbo. She's chatting away and I'm thinking 'come on woman - get on with it..'. Five minutes later she's still down the other end of the room, chatting away but looking at me slightly oddly. Eventually I realise that she's done the smear five minutes previously and my nether regions have gone so baggy that I didn't even notice and I'm STILL lying there giving her an eyefull and she obviously thinks I am a complete exhibitionist... Have also had to spend twnety minutes during a posh dinner party trying to prod a huge poo down a toilet before giving up and retrieving it from said loo and burying it in the hosts kithcen bin instead (wrapped in a hell of a lot of loo roll .

Can't quite believe I admitted that but it feels strangely cathartic...

You have NOTHING to feel embarrassed about!
