Where?

Ah, the marriage fairy strikes again. :-)

If my memory serves me correctly it will be in exactly the same place as you find it! Unless of course it is hidden under a pile of 'plug tops' and '4 gang extension leads' !! If this is the case then you have no chance since it has been stated by the 'Sages' of this page that no such items exist! I was going to post something that I overheard in the local DIY shop a few years ago, but after my previous berating I am unsure. Anyway , off to the Dive Show at the NEC . You think there are some sad b4stards on this forum...you want to encounter some of the Diving fraternity!!!!

A few weeks ago, I bought a nearly new Rover from the Rover group as was. It was a good price and I was quite happy to buy it.

My problem came when my wife and I were to take a trip from Preston, Lancs. to Portsmouth to see our daughter.

Not wanting to get burgled and for the burglar to find the keys for the old car, load it up and drive away with anything / everything that could be lifted, I put one key where no one would have thought of looking and the other in some place that was even more unlikely to be found. Problem was, I was ssiped (anagram) when I hid the second key :-(

One month later, I gave up looking for the second key and had the fob cloned and another key cut, to the cost of about 80 squids. 2 months later, I wanted to wipe the windscreen of the new car and there was the spare key in the small drivers glove box where I keep my windscreen cloth. I knew that I had taken it to Portsmouth, but all searches of luggage proved fruitless.

Moral of this, is don't hide keys when you have had a drink.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Matt saying something like:

Hah. Often it's been 'tidied away'.

On this subject, there are now dozens of tools marketed in bright flourescent colours to make them easier to find.

Until you reach the point where all your tools are bright flourescent colours ........................................................

Tried looking down the back of the sofa yet? At least you might find some cash to put towards a new one
