What does this mean.?!

So, months ago, maybe 6 months or so I put P-R on my DD's section of our calendar for tomorrow.
Problem being, I totally forgot what it stood for! A few months ago I remembered what it meant and I remembered saying to myself 'Thank goodness I didn't forget that!'
Now, I've forgotten again.. shit.
I don't usually use abbreviations on the calendar (and I'm not normally this forgetful, honestly!)
What could it mean? help! I don't have any tickets for anything booked for tomorrow..

Does she have lessons in anything? So could it be a Private one?

dramalamma · 01/09/2018 20:32

Could you have written what it is in the p-r section of your diary? I wrote important things in the “anniversary’s” section for a stupid reason ..... I think it might trick fraudsters if they found my Filofax!! Maybe that’s a hint to where you’ve written the real info?

Friendofsadgirl · 01/09/2018 20:32

Check out what's on in your area for tomorrow online and see if anything jumps out?

GimbleInTheWabe · 01/09/2018 20:34

Could it be tickets to Avenue Q (saying that I dunno if it's even on atm!) as in P - R and Q being the - ? Or Q standing for something else?

You could always search tomorrows date in your phone/email as 02/11/18 and see if anything comes up matching?

HeronLanyon · 01/09/2018 20:35

Something to do with parental responsibility arrangements ? For my own sanity I am going to assume that you have actually remembered but it is so shocking that you can’t now share it. If not, i think you should be up and dressed early ready for PRetty much anything and/or ready with good excuse if a Call comes saying ‘where on earth are you?’

Apileofballyhoo · 01/09/2018 20:37

Have you googled events near you for tomorrow?

Glutenisnotgreat · 01/09/2018 20:37

Panic Room?

Tiredtomybones · 01/09/2018 20:39

No idea but hope you report back here when you remember.

weaselwomble · 01/09/2018 20:40

A swimming club PR thing?

HeronLanyon · 01/09/2018 20:40

Reminding me of day of my dads funeral my step ma with some dementia kept saying ‘so what’s on the calendar for today then ?’ Was helpful on difficult day to laugh ( not in front of her) still lol now when I think of it. Not suggesting op has dementia of course. 😂

MommytoA · 01/09/2018 20:42

Can you remember what you was doing at the time you last remembered what it meant? Maybe that will jog your memory. I have no idea what it could mean sorry! Bugging me now tho

Mumteedum · 01/09/2018 20:43

Did you prebook a film? Row P-R?

NancyDonahue · 01/09/2018 20:55

What is your dd into, op? It might help us narrow it down or jog your memory.

Does she have a favourite author, actor, singer, band, you tuber? What are her hobbies?

Can you check school website, facebook, Twitter and see if it's school related? Is it a school trip payment deadline?

Check emails, bank statement, cc statement.

Provisional registration at a college?

TheSassyAssassin · 01/09/2018 20:57

Not decorating are you... paint room? Or pack room if you have someone coming to do it? Or you said your daughter is in a band, is it a Practise Run/Rehearsal for something to do with that? Or do you have to Pick something up?

No, it's none of these things, I've had a look at local events and nothing jumps out.

Nothing to do with school, or swimming.. The fact its been on the calendar so long must be a clue, I think it's been there since Jan/Feb. She's not in a band, there is only one band she's into and we have tickets for them in Feb next year.
She's only interested in swimming, the one band, shopping, and snap chatting - she swims for 10 hours a week so doesn't leave much time for anything else.. It's nothing to do with swimming though.
Oh and we do go to London a lot for shows, plays, and exhibitions.

newnameallround · 01/09/2018 21:23

Are you sure it is something daughter related?

Joinourclub · 01/09/2018 21:24

What does your own calendar say?!

POPholditdown · 01/09/2018 21:27

It looks like you started a game of Hangman and got interrupted halfway through.. maybe?

Is it something to do with exam results? ‘Pick up results’ (if you/she were away on the day)

Prune roses?

POPholditdown · 01/09/2018 21:31

Psychology/physics resit?

Well, I’m over-invested now.
