It's Not What It Looks Like!

What have you done that, in retrospect, you'd really rather nobody had seen, mostly as things just get worse the more you try to explain it?

Meths
Going on a cycling/camping holiday with mates many moons ago we were using a meths burning stove caled a Trangia. We went into Boots to buy some of the fuel which you had to buy from behind the counter as they wouldn't sell it to people they thought might be drinking it.
The nice lady asked:
"How many bottles do you need?"
My mate turned to me and said "I think two bottles will be enough for four of us don't you?"
The assistant then put them back under the counter and asked us to leave. Bemused we walked outside only to realise that she thought we were going to drink it. I know we were scruffy fuckers but I didn't think we looked that bad.

Don't ask for one from the fridge.
Meths should be served warm like a good cognac.

I tried to buy some recently
(while also on a cycling/camping holiday).
I tried the chemist in the town as I thought they'd be the obvious choice but the person behind the counter didn't even know what meths was.
