Let's Knit Magazine - Your knitting, your style

As a long standing member of SMC may I invite you all to join in???

Come on don’t be shy, you can be as daft as you like. 

I will join Gill,what do we do?

Just put on your “senior moment”. Mine was trying to put my towel down the loo the other night instead of into the washing machine.
I also tried to put the dirty washing in the fridge one day as I was busy talking to “HWN” instead of looking what I was doing.  

Now let me see my most senior moment must be...when i put Andys cigarettes in the fridge and we spent hours looking for them,and when i put my washing in the tumble dryer to wash it,i will probaly remember more later.

There you are .....you are already a seasoned “senior”. And you don’t need to be a wrinklie to join.

I’m in.

I once weighed the butter, put the butter carefully away in the cupboard - and microwave my electric scales! They never worked again

I’m sure I can think of plenty more

crazily enough i have them all the time like going upstairs and forgetting what i have got there for and forgetting word like fairtrade and scalelextric!

I think we have the makings of a great thread here.    

Remembered another.
When I was at college I had to get up at 5.30am to get to the college in Southampton at 9.00am. One morning - mid winter I may add - the alarm hadn’t gone off so I got up grabbed some brekkie and dashed off. As I walked down the road I was thinking “mm, haven’t seen so-&-so today” “oh, they’re not up yet”.
When I got to the bus station all was in darkness. Yep, I’d got up an hour early. I had to wait for an hour for the bus in the freezing cold. The daft thing was, the man on the radio had said the time and I thought he’d got it wrong.

hi
just had one, poured hot water into the coffee jar and not the cups

ooo that’s reminded me: I got up at 1.00am to be on the road for 2.00am, when I was working. I was halfway dressed when “HWN” asked what I was doing. “getting ready for work” says I.......it was Saturday night into Sunday morning

Been tere, done that, & I can’t remember how many times I’ve made the tea without putting the tea in the pot. (I do NOT like milk & hot water)

Also the kettle never boils if you don’t switch it on - don’t know why

Hi I am back from holiday and this is my first look in, senior moments are just up my street! how many times have I made a cold cup of coffee in the staff room at work, we have two kettles side by side, I boil one, wait for the click off, pour the water and realise I have taken it from the unboiled kettle! dunce!
