Those ‘doh’ moments

We’ve all had those moments when you’re not quite sure if someone is taking the piss.....

In the canteen making a cuppa and one of the guys started watching tv, turned round and said to me he’s going to have to learn to lip read as he can’t hear the tv, I looked for a sec, expecting a punchline, nope he turned back squinting at the tv, I lifted the remote, turned mute off and hey presto, he was cured, fair to say he felt like a complete twat

What’s your moment?

Mold

Started to cut the wrong end off a door I was trimming down

Fortunately I dying made two cuts, so a judicious bit of packing and sealing sorted it

I've also put the laundry in the dishwasher once

Building a brand new wardrobe only to put one shelf and the base the wrong way round, so the door wouldn’t shut.

Having to unscrew and pull out fifty nails to take the whole thing apart, swap the pieces and then hammer the backboard in to place. Again

Washing machine was knackered just after buying nearly a year before. Called Hotpoint absolutely livid...eventually got through the press option 1,2,3,4 nonsense to speak to a person. Went on a mega rant with the wee guy about how shite Hotpoint was.

He asked me the serial no...I told him.

He asked me what name was written on the front of the machine...."Zanussi...."

Hung up feeling like an utter fanny.

Electrocuted myself with a baby monitor whilst trying to boil a kettle and warm a bottle of milk at the same time - I blame sleep deprivation.

I climbed Ben A'an with my parents & my 2 wee boys a few years back (I was about 28?) I was a right lazy mare back then and would drive to my local shop daily for copius amounrs of fags, cheese & wine (it was literally faster to walk it but I drove anyway - thats how lazy!)

Half way up Ben A'an I started SERIOSALY lagging. My dad spurred me on with a promise of an ice cream van at the top! I spent the remainder of the hike wondering just how they managed to get supplies up, how did they get the damn VAN up in the first place?? Does the person serving really have to hike up & down twice daily???

It wasn't till I reached the top looking for said van that the penny finally dropped. I felt like a right dippy mare!

I do that all the time. Also making coffee and added a teabag without thinking. I would probably forget my head if it wasnt screwed on

Put on my glasses to read a letter but everything was blurred. I had put on sunglasses instead of reading specs.

My most common one is when my mind wanders when in a long conversation on the phone only to get that sudden knot in my stomach when I can't find my phone. Then realise I've got the bloody thing stuck to my ear!!

The next part is to try and work out what I've missed.

Sadly this is happening more often these last few months.

Getting half way through your work day and realising that you have odd shoes on.

What's worse is one was a lace up, and the other a slip on!
