View Full Version : Have you ever said something and immediately wished you hadn't?!
This morning the postman knocked on the door at 6.45am :eek: with a parcel for me. I came downstairs in my pj's and took it from him.
Just after lunch a dishwasher repair man arrived and I went to the door to let him in and at just that moment the same postman came to the door with another parcel.
I said "Thanks - I'm dressed this time"
The repair man sniggered as the postman said "I wouldn't say that too loud!"
I replied "That doesn't sound very good does it?!"
The repair said "No, not really!" and the postman walked away chuckling to himself!
At least it made us all smile but I must try and engage my brain first in future!

I once asked a friend of a friend when the baby was due as she looked ready to drop, and she was not even pregnant, I wanted the earth to swallow me whole

I was stopped by a lady to ask to do a questionnaire, she checked I was old enough as you had to be 30.
I told her I was forty, and she was like oh wow you look so young, you are the same age as me.
I replied really? I so wished the floor to open up:blush:

Yep all the time but the worst was at college when a friend of mine was shopping on line and I dumped my bag next to him and said you got money who died. He turned round and said my gran. I felt so bad and never ever say anything about people dyeing. I always cringe if I hear othe people say things about death too. It is now quite a big joke between our friends.

Id been shopping and was carrying a new broom.
As I was going up the escalator I was convinced my friend was in front so I jabbed her in the bottom with the broom and said "Stick em up" I nearly died on the spot when a complete stranger turned round!!!!:eek::eek:

Not something I said but once went to the supermarket and ds was very depressed. Dh had parked up e trolley whilst looking in the freezer, so I hopped on it and started acting silly wheeling up and down the aisle balancing on the trolley making funny faces the lot, when this lady came over and said "can I have my trolley back please?"
Ds laughed then:D

My husband came out with a real hum dinger. We were talking about babies and IVF and he was talking about "test tube babies" (I am actually laughing again now)
He said "test tube babies? They put them back inside don't they?"
"ERM..... No Mark! they grow them fully in the test tube!"
I fell about the floor laughing!!! You should have heard him trying to dig himself out of that!!!
