Title: the Facecloth
Post by: babyjane on August 30, 2014, 04:20:41 PM

I wasn't sure about posting funny stories I really like in case they have been posted before but I am sure someone will tell me if this has been posted before. A friend sent it to me about a year ago and I love it  :)

The Facecloth

I was due for a cancer smear with the doctor later in the week.
Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor's surgery to tell me that I had been
rescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am.
I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already around 8:45 am.
The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare.

As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits,
but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort. So, I rushed upstairs,
threw off my pyjamas, wet the facecloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave
myself a quick wash in that area to make sure I was at least presentable.
I threw the facecloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in
the car and raced to my appointment.

I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in.
Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at
the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place
a million miles away.
I was a little surprised when the doctor said,
'My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?'

I didn't respond.

After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home.
The rest of the day was normal - some shopping, cleaning, & cooking.

After school when my 7 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom,
'Mummy, where's my facecloth?'

I told her to get another one from the cupboard.

She replied,

"No, I need the one that was here by the sink,
it had all my glitter saved inside it.'

NEVER going back to that doctor ever!!!

My dad was a GP and he told me this one many years ago and it's good to see it again. What a classic.
