Senior Moments

[Thelma Sanders]

...........Blithely stepping out of the attic without checking the ladder was still there.........40ft drop, punctuated by stairs, bannisters etc.

That's one mistake I don't think you'll be making again - it sounds much too painful

[Peppermint]

Standing ... blankly looking into the fridge. Do I come here often? (Terry Wogan joke that is now all too true )

Seriously, I put it down to my mind being elsewhere

I forgot where I put my tinfoil ball It could be worse:

I Don't Remember

An elderly gentleman was telling his friend about a new restaurant he and his wife recently visited.
"The food and service were great!" he said.
His friend asked, "What's the name of the place?"
"Gee, I don't remember," he said, "What do you call the long stemmed flower people give on special occasions?"
"You mean a rose?" asked his friend.
"That's it!" he exclaimed and turning to his wife, asked, "Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to the other day?"

Red Lights

Two elderly women were out driving in a large car, and neither could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection. The stoplight was red, but they just went on through. The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself, "I must be losing it, I could have sworn we just went through a red light."
After a few more minutes they came to another intersection, the light was red, and again they went right through. This time, the passenger was almost sure that the light had been red, but was also concerned that she might be seeing things. She was getting nervous and decided to pay very close attention.
At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was definitely red and they went right through it. She turned to the other woman and said, "Mildred! Did you know that you ran through three red lights in a row? You could have killed us!
Mildred turned to her and said, "Oh No! Am I driving?"
