birthday party disasters

Am just recovering from my dd's 8th birthday party - eight wee friends round for a slumber party...some craft, some pizza, some dancing and into jammies and sleeping bags to watch dvd.

What could go wrong with that? All lovely wee girls...until the Pink Mist descended.

I stupidly left them alone with some temporary tattoos. It's a little bit awkward telling parents that their little princess now has skin art in a special place...

It was always one step away from Lord of the Flies, well, maybe TOWIE. Eight year olds with vajazzles? Sheesh.

Cheer me up. What's the worst, most awkward and embarrassing thing that's happened at a birthday party?

I was 16 - the word got out and my party for 10 was gatecrashed by the local rugby club, my parents were out. Someone weed all over the buffet my mum had made. Someone locked themselves in the downstairs loo, was sick, slipped and cracked head open. Had to break the door in and ambulance called, bringing police - they heard the din in the back ground on the phone. Everyone ran out in the rain into the back garden - no exit so all back through the house with muddy feet over the cream carpet. Wet glass ring marks on antique furniture. Carpet was trashed and had to be replaced and I NEVER had a party again!!!

Hang on, you had nine kids for a sleepover? Jeez, are you mad?!

I think the vajazzle things kinda funny, I think most parents would see the funny side. Most.

No, they didnt' stay over night - all away home by 9.30pm! It's fair to say I'm a little bit daft to have left them alone for even a nano-second, but I'm not THAT stupid!

I think most parents did see the funny side. Am considering getting some crack pipes for next year...
