Embarrass<strong>in</strong>g moments that make you cr<strong>in</strong>ge with shame!<br />

What happens when<br />

your seem<strong>in</strong>gly<br />

well-laid pl<strong>an</strong>s for a<br />

m<strong>in</strong>d-blow<strong>in</strong>g quality time<br />

with your partner goes awry?<br />

It is the worst nightmare even<br />

for the brave hearted. Here are<br />

some hair-rais<strong>in</strong>g experiences<br />

gathered for your delight, of<br />

some of the brave victims of <strong>in</strong>timacy<br />

pl<strong>an</strong>s gone wrong! “I’d<br />

met a lovely girl at a bachelor’s<br />

eve,’ said Steven, a 29-yearold<br />

<strong>in</strong>formation technologist;<br />

<strong>an</strong>d she <strong>in</strong>vited me <strong>in</strong>to the<br />

house when I gave her a lift.<br />

One th<strong>in</strong>g led to the other <strong>an</strong>d<br />

we were go<strong>in</strong>g at th<strong>in</strong>gs hammer<br />

<strong>an</strong>d tongs. Mid-passion,<br />

her bedroom door flew open -<br />

<strong>an</strong>d there barged <strong>in</strong> a horrified,<br />

middle-aged wom<strong>an</strong>. “Mum,”<br />

the poor girl <strong>was</strong> petrified. Her<br />

mum made me get dressed <strong>an</strong>d<br />

marched me, shame-faced out<br />

of the house. Needless to say,<br />

I never saw the girl aga<strong>in</strong>.'<br />

For all of you out there whose<br />

mobile phones now rule their<br />

love lives, Kate’s experience<br />

might make you a bit more cautious.<br />

“My boyfriend <strong>an</strong>d I<br />

have the most sophisticated of<br />

mobile phones,” she recalled,<br />

“<strong>an</strong>d we were <strong>in</strong>to sextext<strong>in</strong>g.”<br />

We still do, but s<strong>in</strong>ce<br />

<strong>an</strong> <strong>in</strong>cident some n<strong>in</strong>e months<br />

ago, we’re more careful. I’d<br />

been tr<strong>an</strong>sferred from head office<br />

to relieve <strong>an</strong>other colleague<br />

some 100 kilometres<br />

away <strong>an</strong>d the only time we<br />

could be together <strong>was</strong> over the<br />

weekend. Naturally, I missed<br />

him like crazy, especially our<br />

sizzl<strong>in</strong>g love life.<br />

“Dur<strong>in</strong>g one of our precious<br />

times together. Ken, my boyfriend,<br />

suggested we took<br />

some saucy photographs, with<br />

his mobile to rem<strong>in</strong>d him of<br />

how beautiful I <strong>was</strong>. One th<strong>in</strong>g<br />

led to the other <strong>an</strong>d we both<br />

stripped off <strong>an</strong>d he started<br />

snapp<strong>in</strong>g,record<strong>in</strong>g every<br />

steamy second of our love-mak<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

Later <strong>in</strong> the week, Ken<br />

sent the photos to my mobile,<br />

with raunchy, explicit captions.<br />

It <strong>was</strong> really a turn-on. I tell<br />

you.<br />

“After that, we const<strong>an</strong>tly<br />

took saucy photos, then sent titillat<strong>in</strong>g<br />

texts. Our excit<strong>in</strong>g secret<br />

certa<strong>in</strong>ly kept our love alive.<br />

Ken then bought me <strong>an</strong>other<br />

sophisticated mobile <strong>an</strong>d my<br />

mum wondered if she could<br />

have my old one. I thought of<br />

Ken’s naughty messages <strong>in</strong> the<br />

memory <strong>an</strong>d quickly assured<br />

mum she could have the phone<br />

after I’d cleared the memory.<br />

She would flip if she read <strong>an</strong>y<br />

of the messages. So I deleted<br />

the lot <strong>an</strong>d h<strong>an</strong>ded over the<br />

phone to her. A week later, my<br />

sister who still lived at home<br />

called me up. She <strong>was</strong> laugh<strong>in</strong>g<br />

hysterically. “I th<strong>in</strong>k you’d<br />

better get your phone back from<br />

Mum’, she said between<br />

laughs. ‘You might have deleted<br />

all of Ken’s texts, but you forgot<br />

about those photographs/<br />

My heart nearly popped out of<br />

my chest. I <strong>was</strong> horrified. I<br />

had completely forgotten to<br />

delete the raunchy pictures.<br />

And now, my poor mum had<br />

seen x-rated photos of Ken<br />

<strong>an</strong>d me mak<strong>in</strong>g love-all <strong>in</strong><br />

pornographic close up - <strong>an</strong>d<br />

with the raunchy captions too.<br />

Mortified, I phoned Ken.<br />

‘God, no!’ he screamed. I will<br />

never be able to face your<br />

mum aga<strong>in</strong>. So what about<br />

me? I said, still flustered, I<br />

knew then I had to get my<br />

phone back right away. When<br />

mum let me <strong>in</strong>, her face <strong>was</strong><br />

like gr<strong>an</strong>ite. ‘Is there <strong>an</strong>yth<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>in</strong> there you w<strong>an</strong>t to<br />

save?’ she said, her voice<br />

clipped, h<strong>an</strong>dl<strong>in</strong>g the phone<br />

like it <strong>was</strong> poison. I wished I<br />

could disappear <strong>in</strong>to th<strong>in</strong> air!<br />

I quickly took the phone off<br />

her <strong>an</strong>d left. Poor mum, she’d<br />

never been quite open about<br />

sex, <strong>an</strong>d to now be confronted<br />

with her ‘nice’ girl’s sexual<br />

exploits must have made her<br />

cr<strong>in</strong>ge.<br />

‘’That <strong>was</strong> n<strong>in</strong>e months ago<br />

<strong>an</strong>d she’d never referred to it<br />

s<strong>in</strong>ce then. When Ken <strong>an</strong>d I<br />

get together these days, our<br />

mobiles are well <strong>an</strong>d truly<br />

switched off. From now on, our<br />

steamy lovemak<strong>in</strong>g sessions<br />

are for our eyes only.<br />

The Boss's Wife (Humour)<br />

Jill <strong>was</strong> a very attractive girl<br />

who <strong>was</strong> also <strong>an</strong> excellent secretary.<br />

Her employer’s wife,<br />

however, considered Jill’s appear<strong>an</strong>ce<br />

<strong>an</strong> unnecessary hazard<br />

<strong>an</strong>d <strong>in</strong>structed her husb<strong>an</strong>d<br />

to sack her. The husb<strong>an</strong>d<br />

reasoned with his wife that the<br />

girl <strong>was</strong> a competent worker<br />

<strong>an</strong>d that he had no wish to lose<br />

her. But the wife, who <strong>was</strong> a<br />

director of the comp<strong>an</strong>y, <strong>was</strong><br />

adam<strong>an</strong>t.<br />

“If you don’t sack her, I will”,<br />

she stated f<strong>in</strong>ally. And she did.<br />

On hear<strong>in</strong>g the news, Jill grew<br />

very <strong>an</strong>gry. “You’re only sack<strong>in</strong>g<br />

me because I am better<br />

look<strong>in</strong>g th<strong>an</strong> you!”, she told<br />

the boss’s wife. And added: “I<br />

know that I’m better look<strong>in</strong>g<br />

th<strong>an</strong> you because your husb<strong>an</strong>d<br />

told me so.”<br />

The wife made no reply, <strong>an</strong>d<br />

Jill made a f<strong>in</strong>al crack. “And I<br />

c<strong>an</strong> kiss better th<strong>an</strong> you - so<br />

there!” The wife couldn’t conta<strong>in</strong><br />

herself <strong>an</strong>y longer <strong>an</strong>d<br />

asked: “I suppose my husb<strong>an</strong>d<br />

told you that too?”<br />

“No, Jill replied sweetly,” “It<br />

<strong>was</strong> your chauffeur”.<br />
