It's just gone one in the morning here and you've given me the munchies... :cry:
Sorry, it's just 7 p.m. here. A tiny beagle is asleep in my lap, even as we speak.

Is there a word that means "to try to find something and fail, but in the process you find something else you were trying to find and failed last time"?

Yes what about when you come to the conclusion that you will never see it again and then it suddenly turns up underneath something that you move!?..........

An interesting weekend, I dropped my purse.... again.... and I don't think someone is going to bring it back this time. It's either at a service station on the M40 or a layby on the A34. The bank say that the cards have not been used. My dad had to come with me to fill up my car with petrol so I can drive back tomorrow!
However, we have visited my mum in hospital who is doing well.

......... Because I just found my purse underneath my dressing gown when I picked it up to be used as an extra blanket. It must have fallen out of my bag onto the bed and then I moved it with the dressing gown.

I'll sleep better now.

Once you get to sleep!
 
Morning. I thought that I would practice doing the bird watch thing yesterday so I went out and put some food out for the birds. As I passed by my garage I must have startled a bird which immediately flew off making a strange alarm call. The bird also startled me as it mainly white with yellow long tail feathers. I think it must have been a Cockatiel. I know that they said that the weather may bring birds across from the continent , but not from that continent.

Ha ha:biggrin: I know that feeling of relief..... when I got back from my meeting (and after meeting dash to grab lunch), to discover I'd lifted out the bag that contains all the important things and put it under a spare jumper when I'd emptied my bag to go to the meeting earlier this week). I didn't mind the lack of lunch at all! (Well I kept remembering the nice bar of choc I had got in my basket though).

I have friends this never happens to.... they are so organised and sensible!
