I have just realised something I didn't want to realise. I would now like to unrealise it quickly, please, so that I can remain in denial a bit longer.
Does anybody have any good ways of stopping oneself thinking?
Any idea why my bank have decided to credit me not only with my missing 34 quid (see LJ entry when I get around to writing it up) but with a mysterious 39 quid as well
When Lord Scanlon started his first factory job as a young man, he was overpaid in his first week's pay packet and said nothing about it. The second week saw the amount he was overpaid deducted, and he went to the management to complain.
"You didn't complain the first time we were in error though, did you," was their reply.
"One mistake I can forgive," Scanlon answered. "But not two."
