Oh no! I’m sure we’ve all done something similar and it makes you want to swear!

I did similar the other night. Turned the oven on to warm, prepared the chicken tray bake and got side tracked "Shall I put this in the oven"? said DH as he came in the back door
"Er, yes please" 
DH is already mooching around in the fridge. 
Because I've just realised I've forgotten to put the meat in the oven!!
DH prepared all the veg as per usual, I made a fruit salad and apple sauce for the pork then disappeared to the greenhouse to see if anything needed watering.
I then got completely sidetracked, sowed some radishes, weeded a raised bed and some pots then decided it must be time to put the potatoes in the oven that had been par-boiled and were steaming under a tea towel.
It was just as I was about to deal with the spuds that I found myself staring at a joint of pork, covered in herbs and trayed up ready to....er…..roast??
DH was watching the Great North Run on the telly and said, 'I wondered why I couldn't smell any delicious aromas emanating from the kitchen.' 
To add insult to injury, it's a slow-roast joint.
GAH!
