I was in a similar situation Alea, but that was many years ago.
I was taking our youngest son to his play school, where I got to know a lady who came from the same region in the UK, where I was brought up. So I knew her children but had never met her husband.
When going to collect my son I noticed her older child having his coat being put on by a man, who I thought looked the age to be the child's grandfather. So I stupidly remarked,
'Are you his grandfather?'
He turned his head with a smile and replied,
'No, I'm his father!'
Of course, all the apologies had to come out and we all did get on well.
Forgetting where you left your keys dies not mean you are “losing it”
