Thought I'd resurect this:

I quite often get dressed in the dark but, after seriously considering it, decided that doing my makeup in it wasn't possible so I grabbed my makeup, eyeliner and mascara and rushed into the bathroom.

Luckily when I looked down I noticed that instead of eyeliner I had a green CD marker pen in my hand.

That was close!!

The most worrying thing is that you had this in your make up bag in the first place

Surprised me too!

Hurrah for Ellie, resurrecting this old chestnut!!

My 'Harrietisms' have been surprisingly few and far between over recent months. That can't last long though can it!

Aaarggh - just decided to try a Delia recipe for chocolate almond biscuits. She told me to cook them for 15 minutes so I gave them 12 - and they are BLACK!!.

What a waste of time and ingredients.

i mistook my nail polish remover for eye make up remover.. it was only when i smelt it just after i put it on my eye that i realised what it was! i gues thats a joanna clore moment as well really

i once mistook green face mask with hand cream and ended up with bright green hands, and i've been to school with two different shoes on before and didn't realise until someone pointed it out at lunchtime

My dad just did a gr8 harriet moment. He'd lost the car keys and cudn't find then ne where. He was getting crosser and started yelling at us for losing them. Until my mum went in the freezer and found them. very red faced dad.
He'd put them away wit da food shopping.

my friend often loses her glasses, and then realises that shes wearing them! fool!

i had a great one yesterday, was getting ready to go out, and was late so was rushing everywhere, and suddenly realised i had dropped my purse somewhere in my house, so was rushing all over the house and shouting if anyone had seen it, and then i gave up 'cos i had £15 in my jeans pocket and was only going to costas and a film, so ran downstairs to grab my scarf and gloves by the front door, and my purse was on top of them, i had put it down at the same time as i had put my scarf and gloves down! (never did get to see the film)

why didn't you get to see it? what were you going to go and see?

i can't wait til Hot Fuzz comes out - it looks really funny!

we were going to see miss potter - any one seen it? any good reviews? but we were chatting in costas too long so missed the film

lol nice one! mmmmm, coffee...

and no i haven't seen or heard any reviews for it, though i saw a trailer for it the other day on TV, and it looked quite cool!

my sister said it wasnt very good, full of 'old people' so that made me want to see it! dont quite know where she heard that as she hasnt actually seen it!

lol, silly sister!

i wanna see itttt

same! next weekend meet up at the club house! and we will watch it on the plasma

OK my Harriet moment alert! Just got back from Tescos. Did a big weekly shop, unloadedit, went through scanner, re-packed it, went to pay, but my purse was in my other handbag! I was so embarassed and felt sick! As I live half an hour away from the shop, there was no option to go back and get my purse while they kept my shopping for me, so I had to just walk out with nothing! I'll never be able to go there again!!

Oh I've done that before but luckily my mother was with me and she lent me the money to pay for my shopping
I was very embarassed though!

Thank God, I'm not the only one! I wish my Mum had been with me! On second thoughts, knowing my Mum, it's probably best she wasn't! She would have probably given me a lecture on having too many handbags!(It doesn't matter how old you are, you're always a child to your Mum!! LOL)

That happened to me also but luckily they said they'd keep my purchases to one side so i could drive home and grab my purse. Hubby just laughed but i was sporting a rather fetching bright red face!

I know! My mum see's fit to tell me how to raise my children , 'helpful' can become too much easily when she is around

my bf does 'harriet eyes' whe he is lying it was so funny.

had yet another Harriet moment, do seem to hav rather a lot. i went to uni wearing my slippers, thankfully i driven to the park and ride, so had a spare pair of shoes in the car. Got out started walking to the bus stop and looked down and there was my lovely cowprint slippers on.
