Jeanette & Deanna Please note: Noel Coward and Oscar Wilde were both homosexual playwrights and they are both dead. Easy to confuse them. I do sympathise - my husband and I used to enjoy doing "University Challenge" when we were young and childless. Now we record it so that we can press the pause button while we drive eachother nutty saying "Ooh, I know this, its george someone, begins with an M...." When we press play and the answer is given my husband invariably says "I was going to say that/that's what I meant!" nell

Daisy Maybe they remove our memories so we can't remember how bad it was and go on to have more children. If we didn't have more their jobs wouldn't be so secure! lol Jeanette x

Lol Deanna! I'm not sure age has anything to do with it - I'm only 39 but I have the same problems. I blame it on the kids. My memory was perfectly alright when I only had myself to think about! lol Jeanette x

Sheila The reason you connected Miss Marple is that Margaret Rutherford played Miss Marple in Murder at the Gallop, but she also played Madame Arcati in the film. nell
