I've done that em, it's so embarrassing. Several years ago I managed to walk all the way to the bus stop without noticing I had failed to put a skirt on! I was wearing black tights, so hopefully not too many people noticed!?! I was so embarrassed I pretty much hid indoors for the next week or so

I forgot
At work, could not find my lanyard anywhere. I asked a colleague in the office to keep their eye out for it. They asked what it looked like, as I pulled it from my neck pointing frantically at my lanyard, 'like this!' I said. D'oh. I was a little embarrassed, but I have far too many senior moments every day!
-- answer removed --

came downstairs early a couple of days ago, found OH's purse in the fridge.
I used the Gosport ferry yesterday, something I only do very rarely, and the ferry was tying up to the pontoon as I arrived so I hurriedly scanned the tariff board on the ticket machine (no ticket office on the Portsmouth side) and saw OAP against one description so selected it and paid £3.

Turned out it was for OAP plus bike, OAP rate was £1.90.
Getting dressed over my pyjama top was pretty good this morning - I had to move smartish, the window cleaner was at the door.

AC, I've done similar. When I opened the door and the cold air hit my legs, then I realised I was about to leave for work without wearing trousers.

crikey that's embarrassing, did go out with odd shoes, they are the same style, just different colours, so one black, one brown, not a good look
omg I done the two different colours shoes thing too.

now we know we are getting on in years.
I've never thought about checking that I have matching shoes on, oh dear - something else for my 'am I ready to leave the house' routine!

like the time i put my purse in a secret compartment in the bag and proceeded to hunt for the damn thing as i thought had lost it. I was on the bus at the time, so got off half way to the destination, then had a eureka moment, ah that's where i put it, highly embarrassing.
Arrived at the works car park, got out of car and realised I'd still got my slippers on!
Had to go all the way home, lost an hours pay as well.
I walked home from the shops once, and was concerned that my car wasn't parked outside my flat when I got ther.

At first I thought it was stolen, but then remembered I had gone to the shops on the way home from somewhere, so the car was in the shopping centre car park.
I found the car keys in the bread bin (and NO the car wasn't in there as well)
I wasn`t that senior at the time but I cycled to Kingston (3 miles) locked the bike, went shopping, came to unlock the bike and realised I`d left they keys at home. I had to get the bus back home, collect keys, get another bus back to Kingston and then cycle home.
(and NO the car wasn't in there as well)

Are you sure crafty.
