How did that happen? What happened to Wednesday? Really WTF? Then I thought i'll check my pc and just make sure it is Thursday cos really I cant quite believe it. Its Wednesday. So some time last week when I dropped my phone and had to reset the date I clearly did it incorrectly... So I do get to go swimming in a mo.. phew

Serendippily Sep 2020 1:18pm, 14 Sep 2020 19,021 posts	Quote Pin Serendippily We get a veg box delivery every three weeks. I put empty veg delivery boxes outside for collection. Received email to say this weeks order was with me or on way. Went outside, saw boxes, brought them in and opened them in rising horror: all three were empty. My credit card number has changed so I even worried they had delivered empty boxes as a result before I realised these were still the old boxes

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.
