We recently had a visit from 2 Jehovah Witness's (sp??). 

i remember a few years ago when we stayed in the lakes, at the end of a very long rural farm track, 2 Jehovah's came around the corner of the buildings, as there was no answer at the house. i was stood hosing down Hector (our Charolais Bull), so bold as brass come these two guy's and start preaching, i told them to leave, but they carried on, By this time i was getting pi**ed off.

Hector being very protective, stared bellowing ant pawing the ground. as they started moving backwards he advanced pulling me along, as he sped up i had to let go. i was left sat in a puddle watching the bull race down the track, in persuit of two screaming men.

Lucky for them he couldn't pass the cattle grid, he came back up the road proud as punch, and i resumed washing him.   :cow:

My other half has got an autograss car (which he actually doesn't race very often) but he bought it with a trailer, and on second trip out to race it, we were driving round the motorway, when




BANG! And the wheel from the trailer went sailing past us at about 60mph...... down the road. And we were left sitting on the motorway. Couldn't think what to do as it was only a 2 wheeled trailer, so phoned the police who turned up and were particularly unhelpful, apart from telling us we had to move it. Alex phoned RAC who are his breakdown people who said they couldn't do anything, but I have AA cover, and they were really good and sent out a lorry which was able to put the trailer and racecar on it and take it back home.

Love the story about Hector Cameron!

We once had trouble where people were stealing ducks locally. We always shut our ducks in at night, although they free ranged during the day. Anyway, these people must have been trying to get our ducks, but they opened our billy pen door instead, and were petrified as he didn't like strangers. They left in a hurry and shut our big gates on the front drive behind them, we never used to shut those gates, so it was a shock to come back to find them shut and the billy running about.

This one won me a holiday on a local radio station many years ago, the topic was most embaressing moments and the winner won a holiday in a caravan park on the south coast. Unfortunatley everyone heard my story and although I never gave my name they recognised my voice, my children were at a smart little private school in Bath and my word I had some funny looks when I dropped them off that morning. Anyway here goes........

Many many years  ago in the heady days of young love my then boyfriend and I (now my husband) drove down to Exmouth crossing beautiful moorland on the way. It was very early morning, very sunny and love was in the air. We pulled into a large carpark (empty) and parked in a little far off secluded corner to take advantage of the beautiful scenery etc etc. Well How do I put this, young love etc etc. I dont really need to say anything else and can leave most of the next 15 mins or so to you imagination...... When to my horror a car pulls in with an elderly couple in it! Now why is it that when you have an empty carpark, huge!! A car will come in and park right next to you? So we have a car on our right and I am sitting embaressed not knowing where to look and not fully clothed but unable to change this situation without making the elderly couple aware of this. So I decide to open my door and let myself full out with the intention of adjusting clothing whilst hiding on the left hand side of the car. I gingerly opened my door and fell backwards out onto the gravel floor................. there was a screech of brakes and I looked up into the astonished face of a mountain biker, who was totally shocked to see a semidressed woman fall out of her car in front of him,                     he did the only decent thing, He turned his bike around and rode off in the opposite direction.                     cringe            and I am so sorry to share this one with you............I am cringing now............ but it did win me a holiday for the most emaressing moment!  ;)

Enjoyed these tails so thought i would add a couple of my own, my sister used to make me laugh shes no longer alive but  was a keen horse owner and rider, one day she told me she was going up to the stables across the fields behind her house , fully dressed in jodphurs etc, she decided to climb through the five bar gate instead of opening it as she was bent over double with one leg either side of the gate it swung open and she remembers thinking that the family on the footpath must have thought "look at that poor buggar cant afford a horse"!!

On another occasion she was in the paddock and they had one large fully fleeced pet sheep which was suddenly startled and ran straight between her legs, she was then taken down the paddock riding the sheep backwards screaming at her husband to get her off.

Again a long time ago I had a Daff motor car Wonderfull little motor.Anyway my pal Merv said can you come and move Daffy George? No I replied you move it Merv the keys are in it The next thing was I heard it start up followed by a terrific bang and a stream of profanities.He didn't realise that as soon as the engine turned fast enough the car drove away Straight into his motor bike.Much amusement to the onlookers was his antics and ******* ***** They ought to be banned

Sometimes things are not what they seem!!!
I worked in a school, 14 upwards and one Young man seemed to have an obsession with me and was around our house all the time, he chatted to my daughters who were also his age and I also made other young people welcome but I was never too sure who he came to see...anyway, one evening I was cooking, the young man and the girls watching TV or on a computer game when my ex husband, husband at the time, came home with his twin brother...they had some door knobs with them and the young man, came in to see them and the men said " polish these knobs for us" they were having a bit of fun so I got the Brasso out and he sat to polish them while I stirred the dinner..within min's. he dropped the Brasso on his trousers and pulled them down, showing his pants, stood behind me at the cooker and at that very moment, my Husband and his twin brother came in through the front door and my best friend through the back!!!!! It was all taken in good spirits but very embarrassing!! :-[

"dont get caught with your trousers down when polishing knobs"
