My nephews birthday is today he's 18 so ive been trying to find him a birthday card - funny but not too filthy not a soppy one. Anyway I was in Tesco last wednesday had a look there but couldnt see one i liked so i knew i was on the credit union in Haslingden on Thursday and there is a card shop there thats a good one. Couldnt find one there either. Went down Rawtenstall couldnt find one there and went into asda didnt like the ones in there. Ended up down Accy this afternoon and traipsed round and got one. But why is it that in December when i was last looking for birthday cards that i saw loads of 18 ones that i liked but didnt get because i wasnt thinking about his birthday then? Its always the case though isnt it. You always see something when you dont need it and then when you do - you cant find it.

How many times does it happen to you?
