today i received a latter from job center plus as that i wasn't entitled money from the first of July, so i called to find out what it was for, and my claim was suspended for a week cause i missed my 13 week interview

anyway the day i was ment to go i forgot about it, because i had a bad night, a few vivid dreams which messed up my memory, and i forgot about the interview, and i didnt realize until the next day, i went to see someone about it, and i had a call and my 13 week interview was the next day

    I think the bad dreams and memory is very poor excuse, something more original next time prehaps?
    For everthing else there's mastercard.
    For clampers there's Barclaycard.

    Would you forget to attend work if you had a bad dream?

    Most likely I would if I suffered a memory impairment which was exacerbated by traumatic dreams. :eek:
