I Am Losing My Marbles

[mrs_overall]

My daughter is in hospital and asked me to bring in her mobile phone today. Her bedroom is a typical teenage mess (why use a wardrobe and drawers when there is a perfectly good floor?) I have spend a fruitless hour searching for the phone. Mr O has just said "have you tried ringing the number?"
I award myself the title of Idiot of the Day.

Baldric, funnily enough I used to live at an address that had Elgin as part of it. Once I went on holiday and overdid it on the sarsperilla on the journey. When it came to signing the book in the hotel, all I could manage to scrawl was El Gin. The hotelier looked at me darkly said "that is supposed to be your address, not your name"

Look up, Excel?....I qualified for the British Limbo Dancing contest after our last get together.....☺

shoota, a clue is in the fact that when I am having a gentle stroll, Gness has to break into a cross between a trot and a canter to keep up

sorry, that last one was for excel

I wouldn't mind looking up at Mrs O........

Now that I am an endanglered species.

Only because she and another tall person had me on a lead... :-(
