The most common is the one I did this morning. Was out of the flat and walking away when I wondered if I had actually put my keys in my bag. I genuinely couldn't remember doing it but must have done so a mere seconds ago. I checked my bag and, sure enough, they were indeed in there. Weird. See also; forgetting where I set down my wallet and/or phone in my flat and having to go looking for them. I do this on a daily basis. My excuse is that I'm probably old enough to be your grandad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait 'til you're feart to put down your glasses, as you'll forget where you put them and can't see to check. I've literally had to wait for my son to get home to find them for me or, on one memorable occasion, my elderly mother who sees four of everything due to cataracts and glaucoma. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My eyesight isn't that bad. I'm short sighted so can still see things, just not as sharply without my glasses. Plus I have a spare pair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Not enough Napalm Death on this forum, frankly. Today's PTTGOYN: Fairy Liquid has been becoming progressively weaker over the past twenty years.

Bairnardo Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Places with canteen services who insist on table service, then don't have anyone going round the tables, resulting in you having to to go the counter, be told its table service, and return to your table to do the transaction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Guy I work with keeps referring to Frasier as 'Fraser'. He's been told before, but perseveres with saying Fraser, probably in the knowledge that it annoys others. He's succeeding on that front anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve hand a think. I can total 4 Fraser’s that I know. 1 from Elgin now in Forfar (probably about 60) 1 English, retired, ex work colleague. 1 from Dundee, musician, probably late 30s. 1 from near Dundee, maybe living in Blairgowrie or the likes, early 30s. So to summarise, f**k knows I only know 4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
