[lottie dolly]

could anyone have helped themself to them from the porch,thinking of the tin,sweets or biscuits,or trades person thinking you left for them

[jackie j]

I hope you find them soon, if you are anything like me it will prey on your mind all the time until you find them which will probably be next christmas lol. It is so frustraiting when you cant look yourself. anyone live near enough to go help look cos this needs a woman's touch lol.

I know most folk will roll their eyes at my suggestion but ask St. Anthony. Keep very quiet and still and empty your mind. Then ask St. Anthony who is the patron Saint of all lost things to help.I'm sure he will!

We always used to do this when I was a child and I always had great faith in St Anthony. There's always a logical reason for when things do turn out right so sceptics can be comfortable with the result. I'll say a prayer to St Anthony for you Sarah, and I hope he's in a listening mood I'll ask my Dad, Uncle John and my Mum to give him a nudge for you as well xxx

ooooh it's so exciting, a mystery and for once it hasn't happened to me!

Kitchen cupboards? We have a cupboard called 'the cupboard' and in it goes everything that gets tidied away when the doorbell rings... it swallows all sorts of odd things!

Mine are in a biscuit tin and the number of people who say 'hmm they look nice' and are disappointed when I tell them it's seeds lol.

Have got the toyah song going round in my head 'it's a mystery...lalalalalalalaaaaaaaaaaa'

just found all my qualification certificates....
Guess where they turned up - in my portfolio that I use when I go for an interview. Doh. Seems I put them in their to be "safe" .

I lost my passport the day before we flew to Singapore ... I rarely use it, so keep it in my regular folder that has every other document I ever need.

Not there.

Mild panics. Accusations. Major panic. I even look in my allotment sheds

It turned up ~ already packed, all smug like, in Mr Shed's suitcase, along with other things I'd been squirrelling away for 6 months.
Of course is was his fault, cos if he'd started packing like I told him to, he'd have found it !

[Two_Sheds]

The garage would have been the other option, but he's supposedly looked in there too.... Trouble is, it's his type of looking

Yeah, opens the door, if he can't see it in 2 seconds, it's not there.

Mr Sheds drives me crazy, he never, ever puts things where they should go. He lost the radiator key last week. Normally I get annoyed and frustrated, and find it for him, but I made him tip all his tools out and look properly. Then I picked all the tools back up and put them away properly, on the shelf, not the floor, grrrr.

Not there.
I got him to visualise the last time he used it, and where would he have put it afterwards (just on the floor, usually).
"well, I always used to put it in my useful drawer* in the old house, but it's not there, I looked"

He went and had a proper look in the useful drawer, and there it was.

* the useful drawer is for things that don't currently have a home or a use, but might come in useful. Like husbands

[Two_Sheds]

No He just said he'd put them in the porch... I was upstairs in bed when he did all the moving of stuff...

Will he sit down quietly and visualise what he did went he moved stuff - what happened, what else he was doing at the same time (drinking sloe gin?), listening to music?
He's got to retrace his steps, it might trigger a memory

[furball]

Just a thought has it been put somewhere and fallen down, like behind the tv/cabinet, has it been pushed to the back of a table and landed on a dining chair where it cant be seen, between the side of a chair and the wall, apologies if any of these are irrelevent, just thinking of places son's homework ends up. Under the sink is always a good one or in computer cabinet behind monitor, good luck i hate mysterys like this and they drive me mad till i find them so i sympathise. oh and behind microwave is another.

[bubblewrap]

Under the sofa?

[Nicos]

..or behind it?????

[di]

Under the bed??or under a pile of clothes by the side of the bed??

[jackie j]

I lost my son once when he was about 3/4 found him ummm in the tumble dryer he thought it was a good place to hide, he was a big lad so god knows how he got in cos he only just got out.

[lynda66]

i lost my son in sainsburys when he was about 4 weeks old, got in total panic, had everyone running round, was just about to phone police, when i realised i'd left him with his dad at work (he worked round the corner from the shop) ...... cue total embarrassment

[SarzWix]

Grrrrrrrrr I just can't get him to take this seriously today.... Started trying to move stuff myself in the porch, and he says "Just leave it, I'll do it" So I go and sit down and he follows me in, and starts folding the washing!! "I can fold the washing" says I, "it's ok, I'm not moving that stuff in the porch yet"...

Aaaaaaagh!!!!! I'm going to kill him!!!!
