My memory is pretty good for wargaming and history stuff, it's the mundane real life bits that I have the retention period of a butterfly for. This is a constant source of irritation to Ma Subs who thinks I am ignoring her when she is talking...not really, I have unintentionally zoned her out because something wargamey has just taken centre stage in my thoughts. I don't think I am alone in this either.

Ah yes like the time Mrs V asked me what I was thinking and I made the mistake of answering honestly.......no I really was wondering who would win a straight fight between King Kong and Godzilla (Godzilla clearly)

My first fiancee gave me a particularly good book for my birthday. She smooched up and said "... and what do I get for getting you the book?"

This was one of the times when brain should have been engaged, but I wasn't. I turned a page and said "ignored". 

Wonder why we never married?

I was going to post something sensible - but that ship has sailed sunk.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.
