      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...

      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:

                                      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".

                                      laugh away but this actually happened.. A couple of years ago my wife was digging through some very old storage boxes of mine and found a book on "how to have a super memory" or some such title. She quickly almost had a stroke laughing when she found out the book was from a library that I had checked out TWENTY years ago and forgot to return....

                                      Let's face it, after Monday and Tuesday, even the calendar says WTF! Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow. You can't scare me, I have children.
