You're not the only one. I went out shopping wearing a pair of thermal gloves yesterday, but came back without them and having no idea where I'd left them. Embarrassed

When it comes to enthusiasm, your entertaining videos are Uptown Top Ranking, especially regarding your passionate appreciation of the two new YES albums. Thumbs Up
