Have you ever been in a bad situation and then something happens to lighten the mood?

One example for me was my Nans funeral, about a year ago. She had always said she wanted the song for the curtain going round, when she first found out she had cancer and might not survive it. We on't know whether she was joking around or not, but she was quite a humerous lady anyway, so we did it. "Ring of Fire" by Jonny Cash. Everyone was really sad and then the song came on and it just lightened the mood

Any Situations for you?

Aww, that's nice, she must've known that it would cheer everyone up.

Prizegiving this year; my last day of school, I was feeling a bit sad because it was coming up to the end of the ceremony, and my friend Rosie was doing a clarinet solo, and at one point during her piece, the clarinet made a squeaking noise, and she pulled the funniest face ever, it made me feel so much better :).

Yeah. She had quite a dry sense of humour anyway, so she probably did mean it when she said it all of the time. She also joked about not wanting anything expensive and that she'd be happy with just a bin bag and a bonfire in the back garden, but we're not that cruel :tongue:

I was about to go on holiday when I was about 15 and had to leave my dog with a friend for 4 weeks, I really didn't want to leave her and was crying and just as my mate held her in his arms, my dog let off an almighty fart.
