What The F...

So there I am thumbing through other peoples blogs...

"Where's that other thing that we had?"

She Of The Townhouse interrupts my travels.

I have not the faintest clue what it is she is banging on about.

Sparkle Plenty - I love your list. The amazing thing is that he usually knows full well what I am banging on about....! Just for the record, I also have a saying when certain people can't find things. I call it "Man-looking".

SheOTTH.

You actually listen? Wow. I gotta try that once, and see how it goes... My wife will say something softly from another room. I will let her know I couldn't hear her. She will then repeat it at the same decibel level as before- guess what? I can't hear her then, either!

Re: "Man Looking".
It is well known in these parts that the male of the species evolved a very astute eye for anything that is moving. It is how he kept his family fed in the days when evolution was still in the positive direction.

A consequence of this optimised eyesight is that the male sometimes has difficulty seeing objects that are not moving.

p.s Don't know what came over me!

Buffalodickdy: That must be some evolutionary trait of the female.

Kev is incapable of finding any misplaced items unless they are stapled to his face......which is what I have the urge to do everytime I find his 'lost' keys/wallet/mobile etc etc......
