I was at the gym this morning and I have one of those combination padlocks for my locker, and when I was leaving couldn't get the combination right to get it open. I went back to reception to ask the attendant for help, and he brought the bolt cutters in to force the padlock off (after I'd been back into the changing rooms to warn all the half-naked ladies to cover themselves up because a man was coming in), and when he finally got the door open there was someone elses stuff inside!!!! I had to wait shamefaced until the person who's locker it really was came back so I could explain why I'd broken into it. Not a great start to the day!!!

So, did you find a stash of pot or somtin' in that person's locker?

So, Christian Horner also uses the ladies changing room.

In my experience, ladies changing rooms and toilets are worse that the gents.

Not quite sure how to interpret that.

Yeah, us ladies are much worse when changing rooms and then the toilets as well because we kick them gents out of theirs to gain access to their toilets while the gents couldn't care less if there is already a lady on the toilet - they just go about their business and are proud of it.

I used to work as a Building Surveyor before I grew totally hacked of at the job so I often had the pleasure of surveying a nice occupied heated office (but more often than not it was industrial units which the previous tenant had kicked seven shades out off) which of course had male and female facilities. For some reason, the ladies always smelt worse than the gents. And you have to experience the joys of a building that has been empty for a while and the toilets are dry. They don't teach you that at Uni! I grew up near a farm so thankfully my nose is used to funky smells. I had a good tried and tested technique for not interrupting on someone going about their ablutions which involved me nearly doing the splits at times where I jammed a foot in the inner door and streach. Loitering in view of the cludgy works well so you can see folk coming and going and have a good idea when it's empty, but I do know some guys who'll just knock on the door and walk straight in but I was never that rude/brave.

Just remembered another slightly embarrassing moment. In my first year out of uni, me and one of my colleagues were sent out to measure up an office and workshop so I could draw up plans of the place. We were on the top floor working our way downwards as I had already completed part of the job on a previous visit. We had measured up most of the top floor and were getting our bearings when an older dumpy woman who I think was maybe the head of that floor or something like stated at the top of her voice "You'll be needing to see my glory hole will you?". Cue heads poking up from desks, pens being dropped and scared glances being exchanged between me and my colleague (as far as we knew glory hole only had one meaning to us with me being 23 and him 22 at the time). Thankfully it was a locked cupboard where the woman kept her "goodies".

I added a cringe moment last night.

I popped to the local shop (about a 50 meter walk from the house) also I would like to point out that I live in a small village and everyone knows everyone else.

Anyway I get to the tills and there is someone I have never seen before serving, a young chinese lady, so I hand over my goods and think, I have to go to work tomorrow (today) so I will need to show my respects for rememberance day. I pop a some money in the tin and the lady says
"Hi, Poppy Pin." so I looks at her, smile and says "Hi, My name is Andy."
Oh the sudden cringe of it all.

For all of you non Brits that might not know. Today is Poppy day, and poppys come with a pin to tack it to your clothes.

Tonight I think I might of topped off another cringe moment.

SWMBO is in work and I am home alone (well the little one is in bed) anyway, she has forgotten her keys so she sent me a text so that I have to wait up until she gets home, She is a alcohol beverage logistics technician*, So as it got to about closing time and sometimes she finishes early depending on how busy she is, she should be home at any time.

So my body decides that it needs a bowel movement, so I sit upon my throne and give birth to a rather splendid brown trout (can provide a pic if needed) and as I can feel another one in the birthing canal I set to work. At this point there is a soft knocking on the door. decision moment, do I wipe sort myself out before going to the door or do I cover up and scamper to the door let her in and then return to the job at hand. So I decided to go for the latter option (as we live in a flat it is only about 6 meters to the front door from the toilet.) So I stand up, pull my undergarments up, and waddle to the door like a penguin with my trousers around my ankles. Throws the door open to find nexts doors girlfriend at the door
oh the shame.

I don't know what's wore; admitting you have a photo of your turd regardless of how splendid it may be or you're missus forgetting her keys.

So what happened after you opened the door?

[vaptin]

Do you think that story'll hold up in court? Not a Liberal Democrat are you?

Alcohol beverage logistic technician is possibly one of the funniest things I've read all week.

"Hi, Poppy Pin." so I looks at her, smile and says "Hi, My name is Andy."

Classic.....
