Nooooooooo!

So, there we were, sitting at the breakfast table - my husband of 54 years and me. We were having the sort of very personal conversation that refers to the unmentionables of life - the sort of conversation you can really only have with someone you've shared your life with for many years!

Suddenly, my phone sprang into action and asked me if I wanted to keep recording!

I had sent a voice mail to an acquaintance - not a close friend who might have understood the conversation - but an ACQUAINTANCE!

I obviously didn't end the call properly and it had continued to record. It went on for a very long time and I was mortified that she may have already been listening to it.

Thankfully, it then flashed up a message giving me the option to 'send'.

I breathed a sigh of relief, but still sent her a text message telling her to delete any voicemail she got from me. I explained what had happened and I trust her not to listen to it and go telling the whole WI community what goes on around our breakfast table on a Sunday morning!

I will be more careful with my phone in future. Have any of you done something similar?

I’ve done the sending of emails at 2 o’clock in the morning after a glass or two of wine to the wrong person in my address book!

[MoyB in reply to helenlw7]

Ah, yes! I know that one too! 🤣🤣🤣xx Moy

Yes - my daughter and I were driving around the area where my sister had lived and where my daughter had acquired an interest in my sister's house. She was dealing with an estate agent and, with the stresses of that situation we were having a massive row. Then she realised that her mobile was still connected from a call just before to the estate agent's office and the ghastly row would have been transmitted to their whole office. Such horror and embarrassment. So easy for things like that to happen.

[MoyB in reply to O2Trees]

Oh, heck! Blooming phones! 😒🤣xx Moy

[sassy59]

Oops! I’ve not done that but did send a message to my son talking about him…….. it was meant for my daughter. He was very good about it. 😂❤️👍

[Ern007 in reply to sassy59]

Oh dear I did the same with my daughters, a tradesman kept putting us of, was a small job don't think he was bothered, I sent a nasty text saying "forget it waste of time" - My daughter rand me kinda worried and kinda mad, I had sent the text to her, who was next in my contacts to this tradesman - I don;t add others but familly to contacts since then.

[sassy59 in reply to Ern007]

Easily done Ern xxx❤️

[Ern007 in reply to sassy59]

It is - Still felt a fool though xxx

[MoyB]

🤣Blooming technology! 🤣 xx Moy

[Ern007]

Easy done with texting. I was annoyed by the excuses of a tradsman - I phoned him and said" leave a message" Week later he had not been, so I sent a nasty text saying "forget it waste of time" - I got a worried call back from my daughter, who I had text, her name was next to tradsmans name in contacts. To this day I never put a trademans number in my contacts. x

[MoyB in reply to Ern007]

Oh, dear, Ern! Lesson learned, eh? Blooming technology!!!🤣

[Ern007 in reply to MoyB]

Yes I don't test much at all, Yes lesson learned

[Alberta56]

Oops! My phone isn't that clever , so I'm in no danger of doing that. Thank goodness .xxx

[MoyB in reply to Alberta56]

🤣🤣🤣 Lucky you! XxMoy

[Hidden]

Moy you are a star in my eyes I can imagine the conversation....so funny 😂

[Turnipgirl]

Years ago I was coming back from the pub one Sunday and by accident my phone dialled out my aunty pat!

[Bingo88]

Good morning Everyone The only thing I have had problems with recently is after changing network 2 weeks ago I received a text message asking who I was, because they were saying I had been texting them even though I had not been, And then Last Saturday I received a phone call from a lady just saying will you please stop calling me because I don't want to buy anything. But I had never rang her number or knew who it was. I guess the call could have been a mis dial. But found it strange. Hope your all keeping as well as possible and have a good day. Brian

[MoyB in reply to Bingo88]

Oh, crumbs! Perhaps she had you down as a stalker! How weird that your phone should do that. One time when I changed, I was the person on the other end receiving calls from some bloke who insisted I knew where his wife was!!! Xx Moy

[Izb1]

Oops, am surprised I have never done this yet x

[Thinkhealthy]

no but I have an old friend who did - and she was very inebriated at the time …. It made me wary of making the same mistake haha

[B0xermad]

😱

[Ergendl]

Oh, you've made my day start well with a really good laugh!

My worst ones were letters sent in envelopes to the wrong people and emails composed and sent while writing which clearly show I'm on another planet - why does the Outlook recall function never work?

[MoyB in reply to Ergendl]

🤣🤣🤣 Xx Moy

[Potofgoldandblue]

Love it X

[Digger0]

Brilliant - that's why we don't have Siri or Alexa at home!

[MoyB in reply to Digger0]

Ha! Hah! I'll have to watch for Alexa too! 🤣 xxMoy

[Axolotl1]

Yes! Many years ago and probably not seen quite as bad. It was in an encryption group of all things. I’d got so fed up of one member in particular saying what to do in his his particular style and not listening to me. I also felt he was being sexist as there was only 2 females in this male dominated area. I wrote an email to one of the other members who I trusted and was friendly with to say what I thought of him. Only instead I sent it to the whole group and not just the friend; eeeek! Back then you couldn’t undo a sent email. I can’t remember what he replied in return, but I tried to explain I had no regrets in my opinion and apologised for it going to the whole group. I did not intend to slate him publicly. I also went into more detail about why I felt his comments were wrong etc. in fairness, he took it on the chin and our online relationship improved after that. I try to be really careful since then to make sure any email goes to the correct recipient.

[MoyB in reply to Axolotl1]

Aaargh! At least you were able to get something positive out of it, though. Xx Moy

[Mavary]

ha ha! That’s the sort of thing I would do. Don’t worry about it. If she’s ever had a normal relationship ship will just have a snigger and keep it to herself.

[MoyB in reply to Mavary]

I'm hoping she never received it! Xx Moy

[Mavary in reply to MoyB]

Well you can just hold your head up and say I’m so sorry all that came to you. Then you have to forget it. I’m always having to apologise to people because I’ve sent the wrong message to them. We all make mistakes. We wouldn’t be human if we didn’t. Xx

[MoyB in reply to Mavary]

👍❤️ Xx Moy

[Ergendl in reply to Mavary]

They wouldn't make pencils with erasers on if people didn't make mistakes

[MoyB in reply to Ergendl]

🤣 Great answer! Xx Moy

[Ergendl in reply to MoyB]

Not my original comment. It came from a family member, reassuring someone who'd made a big mistake.

[MoyB in reply to Ergendl]

👍❤️ xx Moy

[JJ_7]

I have sent sms to people I shouldn't have. Hope you didn't divulge too much with your faux pas. Hope Don reads this and writes a poem about social blunders 😂😂😂xxx

[MoyB in reply to JJ_7]

Unfortunately, I divulged rather a lot! 🤣 I'll have to watch out for something from Don. I think he could write a very good ode about this. 🤣🤣Xx Moy

[JJ_7 in reply to MoyB]

Oh dear 😂

[Fresco]

I'm sorry you're having the conversation, but it's made me smile, first of the day !I'm sure phones are programmed to do things we don't want 🤔😬

The next will be adverts for all sorts of things,

Hope you have a good sense of humour, have a good day

[MoyB in reply to Fresco]

Be assured, my sense of humour has remained intact. 🤣 I'm glad to know I made you smile too. Xx Moy

[janedivney]

You’ve made me laugh yet again, Moy! Now I’m speculating what on earth you & your OH were chatting about 🤔 I once sent an email at work, describing a client as a “moany old bint”, to the client! And I’ve sent the occasional unwise text to the family WhatsApp group instead of an individual, but nothing as embarrassing as yours sounds 🤣Let’s hope she didn’t get it, but unfortunately you’ll never know! x

[MoyB in reply to janedivney]

I think one look at her face next time we meet will tell me all I need to know! 🤣🤣🤣 xx Moy

[Ern007]

Moy - You may be interested in this. I got a letter this morning from Resporatory Medicine Preston and it says -

"I am pleased to report that the shadow in the right upper part of the lung remains stable"

"As per our protocol you will need to have another scan in 12 months. Shich will happen around uly 2025."

This has been sinse 2021/ Lot of worry at the time withovereactions, but now ust an anual check up/

[MoyB]

Thanks for that, Ern. I will do some research on the surveillance aspect and, hopefully, return to my consultant in April armed with what I need to have the nodule checked as a regular event.I'm glad the news was good for you ie stable.

Xx Moy
