What was your most embarrassing moment?
I've had a few as my children will attest to. One that springs to mind is when I almost broke the glass doors in a Gold Coast Bakery in my need to obtain fresh bread for dinner. But I think when I was at one of Dad's works Christmas parties on a boat on the Lane Cove River and inadvertantly tucked my dress into my knickers and walked the entire length of the boat with my white cottontails on show beats even the bread episode. At least I provided some entertainment for the night and I wonder how many people remember and still have a laugh at my expense.
