Have you ever hidden as an adult?
Discussion
Heard a noise behind our house, thinking the old dear was in trouble I wondered up there in pitch black
It’s a long drive, 4 very nasty looking lads were heading back, I managed to hide behind a bush
Pathetic, probably, but I have a family and thought better of confronting them
Any way, they buggered off, I knocked the door and enquired about a made up parcel, she didn’t mention anything about the noise or anyone knocking, I suspect they were upto no good but we will never know

My brother and I regularly hide from each other. Always have. Sometimes for jump-scare, sometimes just to annoy.
A while back we stopped at a garage. I went in to pay, he slid into the back and pulled and blanket over himself.
I got back into the car, assuming he’d nipped to the toilet, and waited. And waited. After nearly ten minutes I went looking for him as I was getting some funny looks just sitting in the passenger seat. Obviously no luck.
At this point I began to suspect there was some epic hiding going on. The muffled sniggering from the back confirmed it. More funny looks as my brother emerged, red-faced and sweating from the rear footwell. Oh, how we laughed.
For clarity, I’m nearly fifty and he’s my big brother. We just regress occasionally.

Did a driving course when working for a security company . Evasion ,avoidance and anti hijacking . Got top marks as they never caught me in the evasion. Got top marks also in the anti hijacking ,we were permitted to push and barge the vehicle was basically a banger racer . I kept quiet about the years of racing experience.
You can hide in plain sight if your not recognisable.

My wife and I were once invited to a wedding, a couple we knew (but not at all close friends) as they had a young daughter that was the same age as ours. We arrived pretty early, it was a treehouse in the woods type affair. We only saw one other older lady arriving on her own, though we did briefly speak to her.
On the walkway up to the entrance was a board with the usual table plan on it. We were not on it! It was a fairly small do, turns out that it was only the evening we were invited to, we'd somehow got that wrong.... So out of embarrassment we hid in the woods round the back for quite a while until all the other guests had arrived and gone in then went back home!
(And we couldn't even make the evening as we had no childcare!)
