I frequently try to use the stapler instead of my mouse, Vrap. I even get irritated when it doesn't work.

I believe there are two people in our company of 300-odd who still use a stapler. I am one of them. Bob is the other one. (I think the finance department might use them, but they are way down the other end of the office, so I can't tell for definite.)

I occasionally still try to use my Oyster card to get out of my office...and once tried my office pass on a bus!

I just told my husband that I’d picked up the cat’s tea and flick treatment from the vet.

Went to make coffee, remembered that the corridor to the closest kitchen was closed. Discovered the next closest kitchen had no sugar, found the next closest kitchen, put coffee and sugar in my mug, walked away. Thankfully no-one was there to see me turn around, walk back and add boiling water to my mug... |

On Sunday night I noticed my uni/work passes on the table, so picked them up to put in my uni rucksack. Arrived on Monday morning, no passes. Rather confused. I literally had them in my hand last night. At home, not on table. Go to gym, get bathing suit and towel out in changing room, out fall the passes. I did put them in a bag after all. |

We were close to meeting our running club friends tonight in the car when I realised I’d left my running shoes at home

I was trying to tell eldest why the ironing board was so wet as he struggled to iron a shirt - but saying it was because I'd spilled descaler solution when I descaled the toaster wasn't quite what I meant (my brain was trying to say descaled the kettle - but I knew that was wrong but "toaster" came out of mouth instead of iron) |

um
Descaling the toaster always gets messy. But descaling the toaster, or the kettle, with an ironing board? That's genius! |
