You see, I have never really peed in anyone's drink, feined vegetarianism to get out of eating rat, or pretended to fall down stairs.
But I did once find myself in a pub with some friends. It was one of those pubs with cocktail waitresses: same drinks but they are priced higher and then you have to offer a tip.
(Per, it was in Glasgow and the toilets were immaculate).
We ordered our drinks. The waitress brought a tray and was lifting the drinks onto the table when she spilled a glass of Scotch (I think it was a twenty five year old malt).
Anyway, I forgot I was wearing my collar and quipped, "That's a venial sin". The poor waitress looked at me with such horror and said, "Oh father, I am so sorry." She went to the bar and brought back the bottle. She proceded to pour a very large scotch.
The funny thing was that the whisky was for a friend who is a Roman Catholic Priest (a member of the Dominican Order). I never had the nerve to go back into that particular establishment.

Louise, I can't believe you did that! And as for Anne and Vic, I am lost for words, I'm still laughing!
I think my most embarassing moment ( as far as I can recollect at the moment, there will be more) was arriving at my daughter's school concert wearing my slippers.
I think I might I have noticed sooner if my wife hadn't driven the car there.

Hehe mine isn't an embarassing one just one that i did a lot of in school! LOL!!
My twin sister and i spent most of a year changing classes, where i did loads more art classes as i did hers and she did my CDT (craft design technology) class! It was great fun and though all the kids knew we had changed everyone kept quiet and laughed about fooling all the teachers!
Everything was fine!
i hated CDT and she hated art, until it came to exam time before picking our GCSE options and i couldn't begin to explain how i had made the clock i supposedly had or begin to explain how the timing system worked, and she couldn't draw one still life picture!! LOL!!
We had to own up then and admit to what we had done .... hehe, luckily for us it never went as far as our parents as we vowed to never pretend to be our twin again!
Sweet (1 of 2) LOL!!! X x X

Only that i fancied my sisters husband before she did, but thankfully he met her a week later saw that she was much quieter and decided to go with her! LOL! At the same time though i realised that he wasn't as good looking as i had at first thought and pushed her into a date with him!!!
So no, there are NO plans for us to swap!!!!!!!!
