	guaranteed to make one want to punch someone :-D My choices would be : " Calm down dear"....from anyone at any time " wind your neck in " ....ditto " Is it that time of the month?" ( when you're angry and someone is not taking the reason seriously) " Probably your age"....ditto " Do you think you can manage that?" (said in a patronising tone which clearly suggests that the speaker doubts you can manage ANYTHING). any more?

	LOL but mentioning cards, a couple of times I have left my co op card behind and when I next go in ask if it's there...it always is, and they have to go through a 'deck' of them to find it , so I am evidently not the only one :-D
