Egluntyne Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I have just filled the watering can that I use to fill the glugs, added Battles Poultry Tonic and then absent mindedly watered my vegetable seedlings with it. I haven't given the hens Tomorite to drink though! At least I don't remember doing so! Oh dear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackrocksrock Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 You never know they may grow huge after that! - I was away this week and the first night when he shut the cat in the lounge he fed her a scoop of hen food instead of cat food - she was not amused in the morning he said - very senior moment too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa the Duchess Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 One day last week I asked DH to fill up the kitten's bowl with her dried food, easy enough task you would think Instead of her food he absentmindedly gave her a bowl of peanuts that we put in the wild bird feeder, we keep all animal food in the same cupboard. She was very confused and flipped them all over the floor Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phosphorus Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Its definately something in the air this week I filled up my car with petrol, went in to pay and completely couldn't remember my PIN number for the life of me. Bit of panic as it is also our house alarm code! Had to ring DH up and ask him what the alarm code is, in front of girl at petrol paydesk - I bet I made her day! I use that code every night and morning - mind went completely blank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 Standing in front of your front door and pointing the car fob at it will it and constantly pressing it does not cause your front door to open I have discovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Putting a potato in the oven when it is switched off doesn't help it to cook either. Or turning the house upside down looking for my wallet and finding it in the fridge. What does that say about my mind. I am only in my early 20's too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillfamily Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 being a similar age to Christian ..........

Then realised, as I promptly got out and let my friend into HER car that I had been sitting in trying to get my key into the key lock Luckily it was my friend's car Well they were both black Not that I am one of those women who says "well it was a black car officer" or the like My excuse is sadly I am not in my early 20s but will be 40 in less than 2 months time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I do remember when I was a kid mum was adamant she'd lost her purse, sent me back to the shops to search all the way and back, and also ask in the shops... she found it in the freezer with my fish fingers!
