Wendy pulls it off
Read no further if you have a sensitive disposition.
Wearing my white Levi trousers to meet cutomers when it’s ‘that’ time of the month? A recklessly dodgy decision because of the ever-present leakage opportunities.
RED
Laundress
In the bathroom, I pulled off my trousers placed the offending red marks under the hotwater tap. Result? A small fresh red mark becomes a large pink swirly pattern. Other ladies in the bathroom inspecting my tattoos, scrawny legs, and making ‘every girl’s worst nightmare’ comments while I stand humiliated and trouserless at the sink. After 30 mins grappling with tap and trousers I had a pair of trousers with a large wet patch around the groin and down the inside legs. No noticable pink. I spent the next 15 minutes using the paper hand-towels (no warm air dryer available) to soak-up excess water thereby reducing the impression that I had a different, more yellow, leakage problem.
Actress
Meeting the customer. Hoping the damp patches on my trousers were sufficiently subtle to be unnoticable below my glittering yellow wonkey-tooth smile, big nose, and conversational charm. Acting as if my trousers were not extremely prickly uncomfortable.
I think I pulled it off!
