I'm sure he has some sort of attention condition despite his assertions otherwise. One year just took the (lack of) cake: he started a new job that day, brought home Superannuation paperwork and asked me my birthdate to fill it out. I told him. About 10 minutes later the cogs turned over and an epic Oh SHIT was heard 😹

Surely the ability to be able to tell that story now was a birthday present all by itself 😂
