quimby Jun 2021 11:16pm, 14 Jun 2021 4,811 posts	0 quimby My phone tells me whether the car is locked or not. It doesn't stop me looking out of the landing window every time I go downstairs, checking for the blinkenlight by the rear-view mirror.

Diogenes Jun 2021 8:27am, 15 Jun 2021 60,570 posts	0 Diogenes Posted on completely the wrong thread again and unsure how it happened. (I think I read a post on one thread, then click on the notification for another, forget I've moved on and then think of a comment for the previous one) I didn't nearly compose this post in the style required of the things you want to say but can't thread.

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.
