Things you're ashamed of doing way back

About 40 years ago , I was driving down Briscoe Lane on our way to Maine Rd for a derby game , it was pissing down.
In the distance we noticed a couple of rags in their colours walking down the road , just about to go past a massive puddle on the road.
Needless to say , encouraged by my mates , I timed my entry through the puddle just as they were alongside. They got drenched with filthy water.
I still laugh about it now , however part of me hopes they weren’t decent rags ( if there is such a thing)
 
When I was at school, I and a few mates had jobs stacking shelves at Shopping Giant in Cheetham Hill.
They used to play a music tape over and over and over.
When I hear any of those songs, I think back. Good times.
Soaps and washing powders was my gig :-)

You know my brother then, he worked there when he was at college.

Cheetham Hill has certainly changed since then...... and not for the better!!
 
I was at a charity do at the local cricket club and won a prize in the raffle. When I got up to the front, they knew I was a blue and tried to give me a signed United shirt. I tried to politely refuse but they forced it into my hand, so I dropped it and stepped on it as I walked away. I was a young lad and thought I was being funny, but on reflection I realise it was pretty disrespectful, especially to the person who had kindly donated it to the auction and as most people in the room probably didn't know I was a blue.

I feel a little shame at just laughing now, at the image.
 
As a kid I would occasionally get tasked with using a shovel to remove dog shit from the garden. Fair enough, but sometimes I would occasionally fling one into the neighbour's garden on either side. Neither of them had dogs.....
 
Of all the things posted on here I don't think anyone beats mine. I was maybe 8-9 just roaming my local wastelands, had a cemetery by it and a grave had a teddy on it, I took a fancy to it, and well, just took it. It was a childs grave, and I can't imagine the reaction when people came to visit it and some absolute low life scumbag **** had stolen the teddy. Needles to say I would never ever do anything of the sort now and its the thing I'm most ashamed of

In a previous life I was a stuffed toy....
