A senior moment.

My friend, slightly older than me, was trying to tell me about somewhere and said "You know...... that place where I live"
Been a standing joke ever since

Good morning all!

jeni, are you in another time zone?

Am I? I live in n Somerset?
Actually it could well be.
Or am I just senile?

Ah, well, that explains it....

Night all!

DH is as bad as I am, he'll say to me " you know that chap on the telly, he was in that programme " No I don't but go on google and by a process of elimination we find the chap's name, by then we forget why we needed to know who he is

It is amazing, though, how often you know what somebody means when they say 'It was thingamy, from whatsit'.

I think it was Enistein (sp?) who couldn't remember his times table. He said he didn't see the point of cluttering his mind with information he could look up!

I have been known to key the burglar alarm code into the ATM and to try to key the phone number into the burglar alarm.

Well, I don't think it's a senior moment, but this is the last thread I can see today - only eight of them up there, the rest of the page is blank!

Tech's at it again, try the last hour,they are still some on there.

They're all back now!

I some times try to switch off the burglar alarm with remote for the car?

I have operated my Mum's bank account since her memory started to fail but I have forgotten her pin number so many times that I am embarrassed to ask for a new one yet again and just transfer the money into my account and withdraw it that way. Heaven help us when I forget my pin!

in the summer days i have the back door wedged open all day to air! last week i went to a neibouring town shopping, met up with a friend for lunch, returned home and found the door still open. i had just walked out and never even thought about locking up! scary. everything was luckily as i left it.[ SHOCK]

Staying with my family in Didcot for the weekend, I had a phone call from my neighbour late at night to let me know that I'd forgotten to lock the back door. I had to tell her where to find the spare key as she only had the front door one.

My DS1 and a friend who is staying with him arrived at my house and DS1 introduced his friend and friends's daughter to us all even though we had all spent the previous afternoon together. ME? HIS BROTHER AND HIS NIECE.

matson Could you explain the word summer to me please

i will try annika, its usually those three days a year,( on a good year) when that big yellow warm thing in the sky is switched on! today not being one of those days, back door firmly shut all day to keep out wind and rain! and possible SNOW.

Isn't summer what they have in other countries - and, apparently this year, in the North of Scotland.

That's wy I'm going chasing it! I'm fed up with this weather and so depressed I'm sitting here crying. doesn't describe it! That's supposed to affect one in the winter! Not now!

Thanks matson I must have missed the three days when that big yellow thingamagig was in the sky, I may have been watching paint dry at the time

jeni Hope you're feeling better today.Yesterday was a bit grim .I went on the short weekly 'Health walk' in drizzling rain.called at hardware shop on way home.Wondered why it was all locked up until someone reminded me it was Bank Holiday ! another senior moment.
It's fine and sunny today .My line of washing is 'Blowing in the wind' I love that song

I always forget UK bank holidays and I couldn't understand yesterday why Doctors was not on TV. I also forget French bank holidays and was surprised when every shop was closed on 14th July.
