Padders Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Not me but a date I nearly went on. As a nurse I had a date with an attractive doctor. As I approached this cinema , where I had promised to meet him. He was standing outside and it was very windy. He had a toupee on, which blew off in the wind leaving him bald. I quickly turned round and walked the other way ! I can"t stop giggling at this trish. not you, but the poor old doc, chasing down the road after his wig. how embarrassing.

old tup Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Way back in the 60s I hadn,t been married long and my new bride and I were invited to a dinner dance my wifes first one!.She was sitting at the head of our table just like the Queen,after the starter the waiters placed the plates in front of everyone,next they placed a turine of new potatoes in front of her!.These were to go round the people seated near us,without no ado she scooped half a turine on my plate the rest on hers causing a laugh for everyone,of course she blamed me for not stopping her but she was too quick for me!.Nowadays its me that embarrasses her when we dine out!.

medusa Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Nowadays, bald is considered attractive. At least, I keep telling myself that. Bald is fine, but bald covered up with a toupee is still not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyTup Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I went to a Chinese restaurant for a meal and was wearing a skirt I had made and was very proud of (think it was the only thing I'd ever made that looked like it should!) I could have died when we were shown to our table and the table cloth was identical to my skirt It's one of the reasons I stopped wearing Gingham trousers. Got fed up of getting wiped down in restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old tup Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 A few years ago a workmate of mine married for the second time and invited my wife and I to the evening do at Skates on Queens Road which did wedding receptions at the time!.We got there around 7-30pm went straight to the bar and purchased our drinks,we saw a long queue waiting to kiss and congratulate the bride whom we had never met before!.So I got in the queue and moved slowly along until I got to the front of the bride,I stepped forward and kissed her and said"I hope you and Andy have a happy life together!",she said "Who is Andy?".Unbeknown to me there were two reception rooms and we were in the wrong one,I apologised and retreated with a big red face to my darling wife who called me every idiot she could think of never letting it drop for ages after,embarrasing or what?.

Asaw Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 My boss had a toupee weave but another guy on the company must have spoke to him abut as he was going thin about having a weave. He arrived one day with this huge quif that put Donald Trump to shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soft ayperth Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 October '61. I was a first year university student. On "Rag Day" (many on here will recognize what that was). I dressed up as a woman. Lipstick, rouge, skirt, high heeled shoes, 2 cushions stuffed under my blouse. The whole bit. In the days before public sensitivities to such things as transgender recognition, gay pride, let alone political correctness, came into being. You can imagine the looks and the banter that went my way as I went to use the public lavs in Fitzalan Square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
