This morning, into my mind came a few things I wanted to remember to do today, I sat to eat my slice of toast and thought, quick, write em down, you will only forget if you dont, so result, quickly written without my glasses on BUT….flippin eck, I cant decipher my own writing for the 1st item…..see image, can you help, its bugging me, its not
frongs, fringe or tongs………………..

I can't see anything wrong with your frong, Kateykrunch

There might be a toad lurking underneath, though!

Well it does look like 'frongs' to me Katey; does that make any sense to you?

Gosh you were correct, and the first one lol.

the curse of the frong !
coming soon, in a movie theatre near you, cert X.

OH MY GOODNESS……I’ve got it………..It is FRONGS probably meant fronds. See image……I was trying to remind myself to look up the strange, horrid FRONG things on my garden plant as Hubby says they are normal, but I think they are strange. I have just had to walk through the house and retrace my before toast actions to ‘remember’ what I needed to remember but couldnt remember!!! Thanks for your lovely input lol.

You can clearly type- maybe use the notebook on your phone and then you will be able to read it?

prongs?

Frongs
Ivy
Butter
Cushions for Ketche
Cushops

Pebble planks

I too read the first item as frongs, which is no help, as there is no such word either in English, or in the three other languagues I speak.

Couldn't resist reading the rest of the list and now I cannot stop wondering what you had to do at Asda and what pebble plaints are?

Try to stop thinking about it and go and do something of the things you can decipher - then perhaps the first item will occur to you.

Could you enlighten us?

Still no wiser……been busy, but it is still bugging me, but fyi, I need to return a top to Asda Living and Pebble Plants, is to put pebbles on top of the compost in a couple of planters outside as the Birds (or worse) are digging in them!!

Name of a shop?
Something frozen?
Name of someone?

fwiw, I often cant read my scribbles. Not often are they very important.
Sometimes come home missing two things from the shopping list as just cant decipher.

Check for frogs in the pond.

kittylester Mon 15-Apr-24 12:35:58
