Calling a tonsorial artist a hairdresser and not a barber is a sign of a generation gap. As is using one where you need an appointment. At least it is if you are a bloke.
Ok without googling, who was right back and was it Hughes or Barmby starting left midfield? I remember that iconic picture of Barmby and Deano on subs bench willing for the final whistle to go, so Barmby started. And even though we were well into double figures re pints, clearly recall him having a big impact, as though it was yesterday.
I forget names so often it's got to the point where a little voice in my head says "you're going to forget" just before I say the name and I always do. It's bloody embarrassing because you have to do the equivalent of an hand brake turn in mid-sentence to make any sense at all.
Short term loss is one of the first signs of dementia whilst remembering things from decades ago with clarity. As I found out with my late mother, bless her. Rather worryingly I can recall the entire Bridlington Town team that won the Yorkshire League Cup Final 3-1 against Sheffield Wednesday Reserves in 1960, City teams of the 1960s and 1970s but struggle with teams in more recent years. Same with lyrics of 1960s songs which I can recall word for word but unable to remember the 3 items I went to the shops for.
If there are enough takers, I'm thinking of offering a service where I'll use hypnotic suggestion to help you forget you have a poor memory.
I often start a sentence then forget the name of the person/film/object I'm talking about Me: I wouldn't mind watching that film ... err err you know the one Mrs: what's it called Me: I've forgotten Mrs: well who's in it Me: I can't remember She then agrees knowing I'll forget about it for a few days
You just had to bring this up didn't you. Bought mine at 48, 6 years ago, sold it last week due to a problem with my neck and shoulder.
That's another problem getting older. When you go on bike your neck and shoulders hurt. I'd love a road bike but no chance with neck.
Hairdressers appointments???Do like I do. Drop your hair off on a Monday morning, pick it up Friday afternoon just in time for a massive weekend on the senatogen.
I find that as the year pass I'm regressing into a much younger version of myself with habits, hobbies and stuff. Not really a problem as far as I'm concerned but my employers have picked up on it and have offered to send me on some residential course this Autumn to help me deal with it. Like that's gonna happen when the conker season is on, ffs!
Don't worry. You spend a lot of time chuntering to and about everyone and everything so there won't be a lot left to spend countering to yourself.
