By the way I got three animals, but hit the buffers about half way with the counting backwards (never was good with numbers)!

I worry about this these days. This morning I had to ask DH what our postcode was!! I said to DH only last week when we were out walking "why can I remember trivial bits of information like what breeds of sheep are in that field, but I can't remember simple things that are important to my everyday life?" He said something encouraging (which I can't now remember), but a kind of look passed over his face this morning when I asked him about the postcode!

That is tough! Got four in the end (won't put them on here in case someone else wants a go smile)

One of mine is a bird - would that count as an animal??

Not even going to attempt the maths wink

I've just read a post on the Alzheimer's Society forum from someone saying that, at their recent assessment, they were asked to name four animals that begin with 's' and that they could only think of snake. Well I added snail and then went blank shock Also they were asked to count back from 100 in 7s that took me a while as I never did learn all my times tables blush
At the moment I have no personal concerns regarding dementia but I was surprised how tricky I found this.
