The Men in White coats are coming for me soon [confused] there's room in the van for a few more!

I had a friend who, on taking off her tights, put them down the loo instead of in the laundry basket. (No is wasn’t me although I have put the pasta in the fridge and the butter in the cupboard). Can I be the driver of the bus, we wouldn’t know where we would end up.

Whew! So it's not just me.

Having a good chuckle at these. Getting into the wrong car is my speciality. Have done it so many times, but the worst was when my husband drove my sister, mother and myself to the shopping centre. He went off to do something else and we wandered back to the car after shopping to meet up with him. Found the car door unlocked which was strange, however, managed to manoeuvre my elderly mobility challenged mother into the front seat while sis and I got in the back. After sitting waiting patiently for what seemed like ages we spotted the other half getting into a car two rows in front of us, same colour, same make. Needless to say we got out quicker than we got in !

Sorry for the double post. Don't know what happened there!

These are very funny and reassuring. I was watching Gogglebox on Friday and the two elderly ladies in it couldn't find the TV remote. One of them came back into the room and said 'It's OK I've found it. It was in the fridge. *Bikergran" you have me as the driver of the van, in which case we could have another mishap. I can't drive

So funny......made my Sunday!!
??????

If this had been Mumsnet rather than Gransnet you would have had a thousand snowflakes castigating you for making light of mental illness.

gabriellaG. I’ve done the same on my desktop.
How awful for you re the money

These are so funny and make me feel so much better. I was watching Gogglebox on Friday and the two elderly ladies in it couldn't find the TV remote. One of them came in eventually and said 'It's OK I've found it. It was in the fridge'.

Are we nearly there yet?

Car key in hand..pressing the "door open" button whist pointing it at our front door!
Earlier,tried two different sized bras on in matalan....then spent ages putting them back on the little annoying hangers..was leaving the fitting room and realised hadn't noted which size had fit...so back in I went aaagh...

Last week DH mislaid his house keys. He never loses anything. Ever. We searched our house high and low - a good way to get things tidied. Eventually I thought to look where I frequently leave mine. On the outside of the door. Great relief. The best thing is that he’s now nearly as normal as me.

So reassuring to know I'm not alone!

Biker Wheren't your inflatable friends last seen floating past Isle of Man I remember it clearly I think it was the time my broomstick landed on top of a Police car on the M53.
I have turned up at Manchester Airport for a return flight to Alicante and got mixed up with 15.00hrs and 18.00 hrs and had to travel next day,I never did that again for sure.

I'm booking another place on the bus! I have two best friends, husband and wife and I love them dearly but crikey are they fussy eaters! Roast chicken dinner is one of the easiest to please them, except he has to have gravy with almost everything.

All was ready, but I'd used the veg water to make the gravy and thought I could see a few bits in the gravy so taking the sieve, I poured the gravy - down the sink! I'd forgotten to put a bowl under it. I screamed as it disappeared down the plug hole.

I didn't have anything like gravy granules - I do now just in case.

I went to the fridge to get the milk out when I was making a cuppa but put the kettle in the fridge instead

Police man came to the house to make sure we were safe and secure......if only he’d gone to the other door he could have used the keys that had been in the lock all night..on the outside!

Many years ago I gave some old videos in cases to ghe BHF. A couple of weeks later it dawned on me ?that I'd put £250 in notes inside one of them so that it wasn't hanging around or in my purse before a visit to the bank. ???☺

I have been guilty of trying to 'enlarge' magazine pictures...more than once. A reflex action.
Note to self...'limit your time online'.

I have been having sandwiches for lunch since I left the gas on after draining the veg , I only found out an hour later when i wondered why the kitchen was so warm !

Apart from putting the wrong things into fridge and microwave (they are beside each other, it's only natural ...) the thing that gets me every time is the car remote. WHY don't they open the front door of the house?? It seems to me a perfectly logical thing, you should be able to programme them so that they do car and house.

And why on earth did Hyundai sell more than one red i10? Times I've stood beside aforementioned vehicle cursing at the remote which wouldn't open the doors, only to spot out of the corner of my eye the lights on mine activating a few rows along.

This is happening quite a bit at the moment as DH is in hospital so I'm visiting every day - very busy car park. Doesn't explain, though, why when paying for parking the other day I carefully put my card in the slot for "Notes" and of course couldn't get it out again. All credit to my bank, though, I got a replacement in 36 hours!

Yes Paddyann I was convinced Mothering Sunday was today and yesterday evening I was feeling sorry for myself about not having heard from either of my sons about visiting today, as they always do on Mothering Sunday.

Ginny42 that’s funny. ?

I also thought it was Mother's Day a week early. Daughter thought I was a bit stupid I think. Can I come in the car, I need to be with people who don't find fault with me. Sob sob.

Phoned the State Pensions office - very irate informing them my Pension was not in my account - to be told its not due in today - I replied it always goes in on a Friday - sorry Madam but today is Thursday.

Not long ago I was waiting for a friend to pick me up, knowing the friend's car was "new". A car stopped outside my house and I hopped in the passenger seat to realise it was a total stranger. He was probably glad he did not live around here.

I will be happy to drive the bus but I cannot guarantee where we will end up.
