Hi,
This one's been puzzling me for a little while.
I leave home with my kids for school and forget my keys. On the way to school I feel my pockets and say to my son:
No luck, I have forgotten my keys
or
No luck, I forgot my keys at home
Cambridge grammar of English tells me I should use the former, (different time frame,...). But somehow I tend to use the latter.
Anyone?
Thanks
Jonathan
