quimby Jul 2019 3:20am, 6 Jul 2019 4,318 posts	0 quimby Had to drive round the block back to the house this morning because I couldn't remember locking the front door. I had, but for some reason I had forgotten to sing the door locking song (in my head, not out loud), so it hadn't stuck. I sing "Locking the dooooooor, on a lovely Friday (change day as necessary) morning!" in a cheery mental tone. That reminds me, my car has a phone app which tells me where it is and if it's locked. I could do with one for the house.

Garfield Jul 2019 6:08pm, 6 Jul 2019 10,679 posts	0 Garfield Hubby's always forgetting whether he locked the garage door...so we usually have to swing back to verify. I've taken to testing the door before we leave so we don't have to drive more than a mile home!!

This morning I went to charge my kindle and instead found myself trying to charge my coffee mug. It was my third coffee of the day as well, clearly not strong enough!

=============

I was just drying my hair after a shower, I switched the hairdryer on and suddenly the bedroom was plunged into darkness, the hairdryer wasn't working either. Great, the electrics have just tripped out.

I find a torch, go to the fuse box but nothing has tripped - turns out I pressed the light switch instead of the hairdryer 'on' button.
