It's Not Mine, Honestly!!

by nonny @ 28/11/05 - 11:21:25 pm

The weirdest thing happened the other day. Me and Hubby were in Debenhams, Oooo I love that place, it’s my happy place, anyway we were walking through the household section and I wasn’t really paying attention because I was checking out the Denby. I think Hubby was checking out the pans but he denies it. He has this weird fixation with pans, if he disappears he’s at the pans. I think he has a thing for the ones with the spot in the middle that changes colour, weird I know but hey.
Anyway, we are walking through Debenhams and there, on the floor, just sitting there, in the middle of the aisle was a DUREX!

I mean it was still in the packet and everything (urgh, I have this disgusting image in my head now) but this is Debenhams! There were old ladies about for goodness sake, the site of that thing on the floor could have given one of them a heart attack…… or a good laugh.
It was just sitting there, all square and blue and durexy. It’s not really what you expect to see amongst the crockery, it was just weird.

You can imagine the poor soul that dropped it, you would be mortified. How funny would it be if someone had picked it up, tapped them on the back and said, “You dropped this”. If that happened to me I swear I wouldn’t be able to leave the house for a week I’d be so embarrassed.
Once, my friend was in the queue in the supermarket and the girl in front of her dropped her bag and literally hundreds of them fell out, she had obviously just been and stocked up on freebies at the family planning clinic. The shame would have killed me.

So I got the giggles in the middle of Debenhams and we just stepped over it and walked off and now I feel guilty for just leaving it there but what if someone saw you pick it up. I suppose we should have pointed it out to a shop assistant but then they might have thought we dropped it and were to embarrassed to pick it up and my face would have gone bright red with the shame even though it had nothing whatsoever to do with me.
They might have thought I was nicking it. Imagine being done for shoplifting a Durex out of Debenhams.

Think it’s best I left it where it was!

I had this joke set up about condoms and panhandles, but it just seemed far too obvious.

Did I just type that?

That's enough Southern Comfort for me, I think.

...maybe one more glass...

Hmmm. I'm a bit concerned about this. In what way is a condom shameful? Yes, perhaps a tad embarassing, I'll admit. You're not one of these folk who think naked bodies are shameful, are you? You seem to be otherwise rather a nice person. One might say, I suppose, that putting a "raincoat" on the "most" shameful bit would actually be a modest thing to do.

Oh my goodness, I'm not a prude, totally the opposite. I just get embarassed really easily.
Ha ha I am nice, honestly!

I'm so glad that you aren't a prude. If you don't mind I'll read a bit more of you blog and perpaps, again if you don't mind, I'll invite you to be a friend. PS I can give you some really really good and easy recipes.
