    Default One of those "Senior Moments"


    So, I had to go to the company's City office the other day, so I was at Luton Station at 07:00 to get the early (-ish) train.
    I parked the Astra, and locked it while I went to get my car park ticket in the dark and cold.
    Came back to the car, pressed the keyfob button and nothing happened "^%$!" I thought, what a time for the key battery to go flat. I put the key in the door lock, and it wouldn't turn either. "Gosh", I thought (or something like that) "What's going on?".
    Then I realized, I was at the wrong car, and I'd walked past mine. . In my defence, the wrong car was the same colour. On the other hand, it was a Corsa!
    Good job I'm getting my eyes tested this weekend. And the owner of the Corsa wasn't about.....

    LOL, I have done that myself. There was one time after I had driven all the way from Woodford Green in NE London to Starnraer in Scotland to catch the ferry to Larne in NI, only to be told they had gone on strike. I ended up sleeping in the car at the terminal. At some point I went into the terminal to use the gents, then came back out and give a girl also sleeping in her car a fright by trying to unlock her car with my key (days before remote fobs lol). Felt very stupid, but in my defense I was half asleep.
