Doh!

Sometimes...

We have to laugh at ourselves. Having decided we were going to visit a country show last Saturday, we got up a little earlier, made our pack up, got the car out of the garage, checked our money. Nope, we needed a little more otherwise the admission charges wouldn't leave us anything to spend.

Double checked the brochure to check the prices (something we had done only the night before), still didn't twig - can you guess where this is going?

Yep, we had got the wrong weekend! Memory, don't you just love it! Anyway, we had our pack up for lunch, got on with other jobs and generally just lazed around - bliss!

  1. Oh how funny! Glad we're not the only ones who do daft things like that.....I think they're called senior moments ;-)

  3. I once took my Mum out for her birthday, I took a card and flowers, a few plants for her garden and cake. We had a lovely day in the Castle Museum in Norwich and lunch at the Castle Hotel. When I dropped her off at home she gave me a hug and a kiss, thanked me for her day and gifts and then told me Iwas a month early. 4 weeks later we did it all again, but went to Strangers Hall Museum.

  5. Thank goodness it's not just me :-)

    We missed Woodfest just up the road from us, I had even set my phone to remind me of the date..... it did, but at night when it was all over. We were obviously fated not to go!!
