Bumper sadly disappointed

By JOLENE OGLE

WE ALL have them – moments when we forget what we were looking for or when we forget to hang the washing out.
Send in your senior moment to competitions@noosatoday.net.au for your chance to win two tickets to BCC Noosa 5 Cinemas.
Congratulations to this month’s winner Julie Bramstead and thank you for sending in your senior moment last month.
This month, locals share their senior moments.
“My senior moment? Looking for my sunglasses when they’re on my head. I’ve done that a million times.” – Katie Wright
“Only last week I left my house without taking my dog with me, even though we were going to the vet. I didn’t realise until I pulled up outside the vet and I didn’t have my dog with me. Bumper thought he had got away with it! But I had to go back to pick him up.” – Maggie Archer
“Is it just me, or do other people always walk into a room, forget what they were there for and then leave only to never remember what it was. It will always be a mystery to me and I only hope it wasn’t something important.” – Bob Bravestone
