A fellow I knew...
Had a ploy, he would simply ask "say, I forget, how do you spell your name?" One day he tried it on the golf course, and the guy he was talking to turned slowly to him and said equally slowly and deliberatley, T-O-M! What was I talking about?

Oh, My Dear, I've forgotten your name, but I do remember your lovely
face, and how you looked last time I saw you. Have you lost weight? Had some work done? You look marvellous! I'm sure you don't remember me, good old Joe, but it's wonderful to see you again. -- how could a girl resist a charming apology like this? 
p.s. thanks for the book info.

Re:
TAPS, you're absolutely right, "sweetie" and "honey" are reserved for the ladies, the men I just call "Buster"...

You have helped me immensely. I understand George's language now! All three of those ladies had the same name (sweetie). I loses the keys he never does. You are just overwhelming us with your sage advice. :) I love this blog it is always fun.

What do you call the men, Buster? Surely "sweetie" and "honey" are reserved for the ladies.

LOL so sweetie this use of honey etc....would I be correct in believing
that these are your lovers. Yes a little trouble there if you call lucy Maude. Much better to do what you do cos knowing where those keys are for that quick get away"after" is so important.
