remotesI picked up the remote and switched it on. At last! Peace after the whole day sightseeing in Singapore and back at the hotel. As I jumped on the sofa in front of the TV………Whooooo! That was not the right remote. I had pulled the curtains back instead of switching the TV on. Apparently, that remote was to pull the curtains back or draw them.

Right! I went to the cabinet top to look for the appropriate remote! Well! Well! Well!

Now how do I get the right remote? There is one for the music system. There is one for the AC, then another for the lights,…… I did not want to look further. Was there a remote chance that I could get the right remote?

This little gadget that fits in the palm is slowly taking over our lives. There is one for the front door, one for the burglar alarm, you name it. Your mobile also doubles up as a remote, what with blue tooth technology…………

The chances of you doing anything ‘one to one’ are remote. Your post-teenage child texts you through the remote messaging system,  ….. ‘not home for dinner, out with friends’ where is the scope for a good holler at your offspring for keeping out so late? You are in a meeting and the message flashes that guests are coming for dinner…..husband dear! Well! Shopping on the way home…. Remote chance of husband remembering to get something on the way home.

Ah! Finally found the right remote. Let me now settle down for some good movie…. By remote chance my favourite one might be screened…..
