out last night with the boss for drinks with her colleagues to celebrate the big-30.
fairly uneventful evening for me ( if not the geezer on the 11.05 train home). the boss got emotional and made a meal - literally - of a cheese sandwich whilst i met a couple of her colleagues and fretted uncessarily about missing the arse-juve clincher.
the boss slept on the way back so i busied myself with shuffle mode on the pod and the evening standard [shite]. there had obviously been a "rawk" event somewhere as there were a few casualties sporting the ubiquitous ac/dc and metallica black t's.
as we approached home i gave the boss a nudge and got up to stand behind a bloke already positioned by the doors. i was miles away [charlatans] and thinking of the heated blanket when i became aware of rivulets of liquid cascading around the floor. puzzled, i scanned around the immediate low level vicinity before heading north and encountering the pained reflection of the boy's face in the window. there was a look that essentially said, "sweet jesus, please don't let him realise i'm giving it all up on my skin tight, faded grey levis."
as our eyes met the map of africa became clear and - as the doors slid open - he did his finest bow-legged ranchero walk up the platform exuding the pain that only a man who has just taken a public piss in his own pants can muster.
i fancy it may not even have been his station - he just needed to go and couldn't wait any longer.
it was cold on our short walk home. i'm ashamed to say i insisted on waking the boss to observe his misfortune. i reminded her tonight (she'd forgotten) and we laughed again.
that must have chafed by the time he eventually lowered himself, sobbing, into bed.
have you ever pissed yourself in public?
