I know a bloke who was out on th etown and was caught short,,so he made his way up this small dark alley. It was so dark that 10ft into said alley and you were invisible from the path by the main road.

So...hidden in the dark he drops his pants and squats. While squeezing it out he hears a small rumble which gradually gets louder and louder until it sounds like a stampede.

He's squatting in the pitch black in a narrow alley and he knows he can't be seen...but the noise increase is seriously worring.....then........BANG!!!!............these two double doors that he couldn't obviously see burst open and bathed him in the brightest light imaginable with a crowd of people stopped dead in their tracks behind the light........staring at a man squatting on the ground squeezing out a 10lb bouncing baby turd. he had only chose to take a dump outside the back doors to Helensburgh cinema after the late night show.

Try "running" away with yer arse 2 inches from the floor while yer kecks are tied around yer ankles.....it won't happen I swear :-)

I`m sure I must have told you this before, but ONE of my most embarassing moments (and by no means the worst) was as a first year at Tynemouth High School. Second day at school - still totally petrified, late for morning assembly, though thankfully aware of where I should be sitting. The hall is (was) like an amphitheater with a semi-circular arrangement of seating rising up and up in tiers. The smallest and youngest pupils sat at the back, right up in the Gods. As I said, I was late, after a last minute dash to the toilets, and most of the pupils and teachers were already assembled. Dying with embarassment, and feeling as though all eyes were on me, I did the long trek up the stairs rising through the middle of the hall. In fact, I was quite correct, all eyes were on me - as in my haste I had neatly tucked the back of my skirt in my knickers!!!

I don`t think I ever recovered my dignity in five years at that school!(:o)

happened about 14 years ago, either in a pre-season warm up or post season piss up we had this thing going with Elgin Rugby Club, one year they would come down to us, game of football, drinky poos etc, service the notables!! and we would return to them the following year at their nissan hut (ex RAF) clubhouse. Being of the Rugby Fraternity, no bother beating them at football, it was in the entertainment stakes we were lacking against them. Buff decided to change tack, got on the floor and did monologues, Dangerous Dan McGrew, My Lady Lu and other Yukon Teasures. At the end of the night there was no competetion, I was the resounding winner of the "Dickhead of the Night" prize, I was so pleased with this enormous penis which was presented to me I wore it all the way home strapped to my forehead like some gigantic antler. Anyway when I held the actual debrief of the night with wor lass some 48 hrs later, I thought i held up well under interrogation, until she produced exhibit A for the persecution of, a photo of yours truly grinning inanely, as a newt, with this monster penis strapped to my head. Some steward (bah) had took the piccy, and it had found its way onto the school bus and into the hands of my 14 year old daughter. Get away with it now, but 14 years ago, cringe time

So YOU are that legendary woman of folk-lore around these parts, Gal? BTW, you forgot to mention the black stockings and suspenders!
I know grown men around here who still weep when they think of that morning, and one or two who went into the priesthood as a consequence.

Mine wasn't the least bit embarrassing - till I sobered up.

It's the saga of me thinking the taxi radio frequency was the fare, and telling the driver in no uncertain terms 'There's no effin way you're gona rip me off, sunshine'

I've already regaled the long standing among you, twice before I think, so I'll spare the rest the gory details.

Galaxy - is it still there? Is it still there???
It's a designated historic landmark as a result of your infamous 'knicker-tuck' escapade - English Heritage are presently in negotiations with NTC.

Most people should be familiar with Old Armstrong Bridge seperating jesmond dean from Heaton Park. Anway when we were out celebrating a friends 21st birthday we were walking back from the toon as you do when you're saving your money for some chips and gravy. We got to one end me, birthday boy and the brothers prior. One of us decided it would be a good idea to walk across the bridge naked. We took all our clothes and started walking got to the end and walked back only to find all our clothes were gone. Being absolutly lit we really couldn't care so we proceeded on our way. Bollock naked walking up Newton Road, except our shoes cover our man hoods (luckily i was wearing big boots) I remember getting to the top and there being lots and lots of people out, which surprised me considering how late it was. We managed to avoid most people, as we went our seperate ways. Me and Birthday boy lived on the same street, by now it was late and being naked we had no keys so we had to knock his mam oot of bed she came down stairs turned every single light in inside and outside the house bathing us in a halogen glow not seen since st marys light house. She comes to the door looks at us and she screamed " Where's ye bloody coat ya gonna catch your death going out like that" not really embarresing just a moment to share.

Syme.....I can remember the days when it was still safe enought for cars to go over the bridge.....it wasn't always a Sunday morning art gallery you know!

I can still hear the old man as we drove past the Corner House (or the Cradlewell if we were coming the other way) asking if should go down the hill or across the bridge......he always wanted to go across the bridge cos "it would take a lot more petrol to come back up the hill" and we bliddy believed him!

THS is no longer - but the building is there alright. However I think the assembly hall was gutted when it became a sixth form college. Are you prepared to divulge which years you were there Galaxy? '52 to '60 for me.
