Post by: Roxy on July 23, 2010, 04:28:11 pm: Not just me then!! I always prided myself on being blessed with a good memory, but with so much going on, my memory has been shocking lately. Yesterday, for example, I forgot where I had put my mobile phone. Hunted high and low,. Finally rang it on my landline ....and lo and behold, it rang. Where was it? In the pocket of my trousers where I had put it. The other day, I went to the fridge to get some milk. Could I find the cup of tea it was to go in? Yep, there it was on the shelf in the fridge!!
