Things Not in Correct Place

1 Jun 2007

I am sometimes bemused when searching for things, to find them in an unexpected place. Example: doing my grocery order online with a well known supermarket,I was looking for cream crackers. Hunted under biscuits,snacks and sweets to no avail. Where were they? Yep I bet you are ahead of me here ... dairy products :giveup:
A teaching colleague was doing a unit of work with her Year 1 infant class on time and clocks. She had them all seated looking at the monitor and googled (or equivalent) Big Ben. Luckily she was alert enough and able to click off fast enough as a picture of a superbly muscled and oiled black guy started to load onto the screen.(and this was a supposedly secure site.) Not quite sure how she handled the inevitable questions from the dear little souls, but she was still creased up with hysteria when I saw her later. (And yes before you ask we did hunt after school for Big Ben again but sadly he was hiding.) rolleyes

Anyone else found things in the wrong place?

A few months ago my youngest was doing a project on different decades, it came to the 50s, she done the coronation and wanted to find out about the crown jewels and print off a couple of pics, so I googled em and got
Discount Crown Jewels :shock: :shock: :shock:
Now my daughter thinks I'm stark raving mad cos I spent ages explaining how rare they were, that they were priceless, that they're guarded all the time in the tower of london etc .......... when in fact Google (the fountain of knowledge according to youngest) reckons they're two a penny on Ebay! rolleyes

It should work well when you want to "freeze frame" a video.

we recently flew to africa from gatwick, parked the car and off we went!
On the way home, we missed a connecting flight and were put on another flight home, but it flew into heathrow.
we were so tired we spent two hours looking for the car, until we sat down right in front of a
'welcome to BAA Heathrow'
sign, its then that our stupidness reavealed itself! redface

Are you sure?
