As part of my job, I help to design and then responsible to approve the legality of food labels.

My latest project was approved a few weeks ago and they have just been delivered. All 10 000 of them!

I have only just noticed that I have put MY OWN street address and post code on.

Fast thinking is now required.......

lol - anyone fancy a bonfire and BBQ at weekend?

No can do BOAB. They were delivered by courier and are now nicely wrapped around a certain product.... ready for delivery into a certain customer. At least any customer complaints will come straight to me.

I've decided to come clean.......

I'd prefer a vodka!

Pheewwwwwww....... I've got the cold sweats!!!

I am the laughing stock, have been called a couple of choice names BUT I may just come out of it alive and still in work. 20 years and 1 cock-up, must mean something to the gaffers.

Pushing Tin - that is one way out. Another suggestion is to say nothing and be really surprised if anyone notices. If all else fails, I have offered to pay for the labels.

Thank f*ck it's not own label!!!!!

Didn't anyone else help with the proofreading? If they did, get them sacked!
