Hmm, I know the feeling, Teddy... I booked my medical after I'd got home from a night shift, and was not quite 'all there' at the time. I wrote down the time of my appointment but nothing else, assuming that details like which building to go to would stick in my mind. As soon as I put the phone down I realised I had no clue where it was I was meant to be going ('.... place beginning with 'B'... oh wait, they both do...') but was too embarrassed to call straight back and admit I had absolutely no idea what had just been said to me.

I called up on the morning of my medical to 'double-check' - must remember to make sure I'm actually conscious before arranging appointments etc in future!
Good to know Im not the only "Shift Zombie" around! Although, perhaps if i was more awake I would have panicked more during this whole process! (well, more than I already did)
I did exactly the same as you, wrote it down the date, time, booked the holiday from work, got the national express tickets ....
that all was fine and planned meticulously...haha.
