I forgot a towel once. It takes ages to dry yourself with toilet paper... :?0

Forgotten towel = hot air handdrier.
Drying self with hot air handdrier = very confused looking other users of the facilities."This area left purposefully blank"

How did you solve the problem? Did you pull rank over some poor lowly minion who's now shivering in his string vest?0 -
He draped two cartridge belts over his shoulders, like Rambo. Obviously.0

Actually, there is.
Trying to dry yourself with someone else's sweaty kit, for example.
True story ....
A guy who will remain nameless (Dave) at my last company but one used to cycle in every day, quite far to, said nameless (Dave) always had his kit drying on the radiators but never a towel in site plus we did not have showers in the office, so eventually we asked him about his mysterious lack of towel and how he'd been cleaning himself, to which he (Dave) replied "I use the hand towel in the gents, give my pits and parts a quick rub down and then spray with deodorant"
:shock:
That would be the ONE hand towel in the mens toilets that everyone uses for there hands :?Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.

Thought about attending meetings 'nipples out' but eventually chose to wear an operating theatre top (i work in a hospital). It looked odd but not totally out of place!0 -
I've forgotten trousers once, luckily we have a degree of flexi-time and I was in reasonably early so I swapped the lunchtime ride for a quick ride home to fetch said trousers. Never forgotten them since, plus I now take all kit in on Monday and leave it in the shower room so I only need to double check on Mondays.0

That's the second mention of sweaty kits you've made...you worry me.<insert witty comment here>
Also, I have calculated my FCN as 12...although I have no idea what that actually means.0 -

I have 2 pairs of trousers, 3 shirts and several changes of underwear in my drawers because I'm so bad at forgetting stuff. But with that amount I got complacent and had to give a presentation to the board with my lycra shorts on under my trousers - going commando in the situation would have been too much... :oops:'07 Focus Izalco Expert - Hairy Baggy Shorts Roadie (FCN 5)

Forgot the underwear once....had to make a quick trip to M&S before anyone noticed.
+1, except M&S wasn't an option and the trousers I had with me were quite lightweight ones. I felt a bit, ahem, exposed :oops:
Luckily it was a training day and I spent most of the time sat down in front of a computer.0 -
If I forgot my pants I'd just go commando.
Not really seeing the issue.Food Chain number = 4
A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0 -
I've forgotten stuff once or twice, but more than once i've turned up and my shower gel and/or towel have 'vanished' from the locker room. Towel usually reappears in the changing room (usually on the floor :? ) but a few times i've had to make do with just water. I hope those who borrowed my towel enjoy my infectious dermatitis0

No, the Health and Safety guy stopped it due to a nasty zipper accident
and chuckcork, surely you just tuck it in your sock to avoid it swinging?0 -

I have come close to forgetting on various occasions
I now keep a 'spare' bag of old shirt/trousers/underwear in my desk drawer
away from my 'normal' work wear which I keep in a separate cupboard.
When the normal spares run out I replace them, if I forget I have a second chance.

Fear of forgetting my trousers and a poor memory meant I ran out of trousers at home once...checked the locker at work and found them all!!!
