  Our busy lifestyles mean five important tasks or facts slip our minds during the course of a typical day, a study has revealed.

  More than half of those surveyed blamed their forgetfulness on trying to do too many things.

  A quarter said they were expected to remember too much, and a fifth said there weren't enough hours in the day to deal with everything.

  The problem seems to get worse with age, with more than half saying they forget things more frequently as they get older.

  A further 12 per cent get a rude awakening every weekend because they forget to turn their alarm clocks off.
