I don't really have many.You start since you were the first to reply.
It's difficult - not that I've not been in any compromising situations, just that I really don't care enough to get embarrassed!
Maybe the time I was travelling around Europe - was camping in a bit of woodland just outside Geneva and my friend and I had rather dicky tummies.
Feeling the imminent rectal tsunami which often accompanies these situations I retired to my favourite tree to relieve myself.
Half way through my evacuations a little dog trolled past - followed by it's owner, a middle aged well dressed lady who seemed a little startled to see little old me with my bags round my ankles 'tarmacing' the floor.
All I could manage was a cheery 'Good Morning, lovely day for it'
She seemed in a hurry to get away. We though it best not to hang around too long as well.
I do believe my pants are still in that wood somewhere, probably home to a family of voles by now?

Consistency
In my younger days with a playful puppy and a young woman in front in her flip flops. Of course she was walking and they were flip flopping, he pounced on her flip and she flopped and I got scowled at and we were all embarassed.
There are a lot of embarrasing things but I think many of us won't admit things. The above is just a light little thing. I was in my teens.

I'll wear beige trousers over head on collusions with lamp posts anyday. Especially when there is a street full of people looking

mmm...never colluded with a lamp post
When I were a we lad - well about 18 - my mother came home unexpectedly and caught me making love to my then girlfriend in front of the fire on the living room rug.
She was decent sort though, appologised and said she would return when we were finished.
Needless to say she could have stayed as my libido had completely disappeared.

Lol. Why do people just not learn, that if your going to get fruity, make sure doors are locked, curtains/blinds drawn, etc?
Went past a bungalow a while ago, and saw a couple getting 'down with it' on the sofa. Not sure if they intended to be exhibitionists, or just got lost in the moment, however they could have at least tried to be less 'showful' lol.
Kids can see through their window, it's on a busy bus route, need I say more.

So how long did you stand watching
The windows in amsterdam ( yes, you know the ones) must encourage exhibitionism. I remember when I was there a few years ago with my wife, we were walking down a main street at about 10 in the morning and happened to glance into a window of somebody appartment. There was a bloke in about his 40's just stood in the middle of his lounge completely starkers. We made eye contact and he waved at us
no embarrasment whatsoever.Mind you he was very well endowed and probably proud to be showing himself off.
It put a smile on my wifes face at the time but come bedtime I thought I noted a whistfulness come over her.

I stayed to watch the full display of course.
Jesting!
Was just walking past, and quickly turned away, feeling slightly embarrassed too, for both them and me

When I was 14 I was completely obsessed with the Bay City Rollers (no, thats NOT the embarrssing confession!) ...... my bedroom was covered in posters, I wore tartan whenever I could and I was utterly convinced that one day Woody and I would be together singing Shang-a-Lang 'til we were in our dotage. My friends were all obsessed too, and we spent all our waking hours talkingthinking/dreaming about the Rollers.
During one of their concerts lead singer Les McKeown threw a microphone stand at a press photographer, who pressed charges. My friends and I spent days bombarding this photographer with hate mail, carefully covering our letters in hand drawn tartan, and accompanying each letter with declarations of our undying love for Les, Woody and Co.
About 10 years later I was working in the newsroom of a newspaper - the chief photographer was the guy who had been hit by the microphone, and on a drunken works night out I confessed all ...... only to discover he'd kept some of he "funniest" hate mail he'd received as a result .......... mine was one of them. I could have gotten over the shame had he not then told the whole news room first thing on Monday morning and I had to put up with an entire week of people saying Bye Bye Baby to me everytime I left my desk ......

About fifteen years ago took the kids to Euro-Disney and stayed at the Hotel New York. You know how it is, you get there first day, long trip, long afternoon in the park so you get back to the hotel and relax with a few (dozen) drinks.
Anyways, went to bed early, about ten, only to wake about an hour later to a call of nature. Little bit confuddled I thought I was at home so bleary got out of bed, opened the door which promptley shut behind me with a loud slam and exited the room.
Now the door slamming was just enough to fully awaken me to find myself stood in the hotel hallway, in just my underpants (lucky I had at least them) and literally throngs of people and little kids walk back to their rooms.
Ah well I thought, only about two dozen people seen me so get past the embarrassment and just knock on the door, wake the wife or kids and get let back in. Nope - they were dead to the world as well. Had to get in the lift and walk to reception to get a door card then obviously repeat the walk back to the room. Who knew the hotel was so busy at 11pm :redface:
To top it off, eventually got back in the room only for Mrs Locke to stir on my return as ask "where have you been".
On the upside it made me the man I am today. One who always pyjamas on holiday!
It may sound like a comedy sketch, but I promise you it was very real and haunts me to this day!

Oh, I'm certainly not going to tell you all about the time when I was about 19 and holiday with friends, drunk way to much (you think I would learn) and soiled myself.

When I was about 14 I went to London with my friend and our boyfriends. Obviously being 15 I was this youg teen who just wanted to impress her fellow teen boyfriend.
We were on Oxford Street awaiting a bus and and leant against the bus shelter, only to then realise the glass was missing and I went straight through the other side on my back, legs in the air and sore!!!!!

following on from the Bay City Rollers posts reminds me of my sister. She was twelve and was an ardent fan too, they came to Cardiff and she wanted to go see em. My mother wouldnt let her stating she was too young, I laughed as all 15yr olds would and being in my Alice Cooper/Black Sabbath phase impending rocker.Sis came back a day or two later with said tickets, I asked how she managed to win mum over, I told her you were taking me and you'd look after me.GREAT!!!! Who am I to disobey my parents.Come concert night, I keep as low profile as I can towards the concert, in the days you get shown to your seats, oh brill, four rows from the front of the stage, I sink as low as I can into the seats. support comes and goes then on they come, whole venue erupts into a cacophony of screams and everyone stands up, I'm the only one sat down, sensing my embarrassment I stand up as well, I look behind to see faces of girls from the whole fourth yr of school who are all looking at me and not the band nudging and shouting theres Bri in front. Got home that night and told my parents I want to leave school.
