    Yes Fairygirl, love your name and picture by the way, before he died, he put 3 yes 3 different locks on the front door ! My mum was at my sisters one day and I had to drop something off at her house, left and locked all three locks up, set off to manchester airport and when landed at the other side I had numerous missed calls, mum was locked out as she was only using one lock !  Oops .

    My son once came to see me at work to lend a tenner - told he was waiting for me then promptly forgot about him until i walked past him an hour and half later _ i was not popular!

    find myself talking out loud when at work along the lines of "19,01 F2 press F3" when undertaking customer requests on computer!

    Frantic search for all the passports this year when I had put them in a "safe place".

    the list could go on but I,ve forgotten what I was going to put on it! Doh!

    Haha, safe place ..... Look yes, been there image

  • No.no,  I know where the safe place is.  What I do is take it from the safe place, to leave it in a convenient place, the night before.  Anybody been there???

    Safe places...don't get me started....image

    Flora - my Dad had those internal locks - the kind that stops anyone getting out of a room into the rest of the house. He had them on the front door as well, so even if you had a key to unlock the door,  you were still standing on the doorstep!  image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
  • Phillippa,  don't attempt this strategy!!    Can't you see the inevitable outcome.?  Pure panic when you are going out the door with not a minute to spare.

    Hmm..

    The food stories remind me of many years ago when I went into the kitchen & thought "strange smell" - but almost as quickly it was gone.

    Over the next few days it became more noticeable until I could smell it all the time.

    Eventually tracked it down to a lump of ox heart I'd put into the (rarely used) big oven to defrost for the cat's tea ..... about 2 weeks before image.

    Unfortunately was not to be the last time it happened imageimage
