    Flowers. Always flowers when trouble looms :) On your way back, pop into the nearest bookshop & pick up one of those books on how to turbo-charge your memory...

    Flowers would also be my suggestion - can't go wrong with that.

      If Mrs. Biscuit falls in the front garden and her mother is not there to hear it - does she make a noise? :confused:

        Who cares? Just tell her: "Honey, I forgot. But what do you expect? I'm a man!"

          On her way out the door this morning, Michelle asked me "Can you pick up X when you go out?" and like an idiot, I replied "Sure! No problem!" Now, can I remember what it was? Nope. Not a clue. I've checked all the usual suspects Milk/Bread/Toothpaste/Loo roll/Cat food and they are all fine. Any ideas what I should get? :laugh:

              I did that the other day, and when I got home I put it on my bookshelf next to a book called "How to turbo-charge your memory".

                                    On her way out the door this morning, Michelle asked me "Can you pick up X when you go out?" and like an idiot, I replied "Sure! No problem!" Now, can I remember what it was? Nope. Not a clue. I've checked all the usual suspects Milk/Bread/Toothpaste/Loo roll/Cat food and they are all fine. Any ideas what I should get? :laugh:
