Gwyn...could they be.....err....still in your handbag? Just a thought.

(If they are, sneak them out to the car tomorrow when he's not looking LOL)

Bob
I'll check the car tomorrow..... His domain, where he's already 'looked'.

No suitcases needed or used in December.
We can be driving in France within an hour of leaving our house, so day trips are possible from here.
Hoped to make use of half term price offer to take grandson to Arras, as he's been studying the War.

Gwyn

obviously they will be in the car? thats the last place you recall that you had them?
Bob
or in the suitcases, you will need THEM when you go on the next trip?

Good thinking TW.
I'll check when I go downstairs.

Last time my passport was lost, ..several years ago, I ended up after about 2 years, ordering a new one. About a fortnight after the new one arrived, the old one turned up in a pile of stashed away college books belonging to elder daughter......but of course she didn't do that.. Lol.

We used these now lost ones early in December, so they can't be far away....Can they?

Gwyn

Ok, so could the passports be where the salad cream and branston were supposed to be?

IF IT WAS MY HUBBY

THEY WOULD BE FILED NEATLY AWAY UNDER F

F FOR FLIPPIN LOST

Daughter is a very responsible adult, very organised in her work and life in general.
She is not the cause. OH is the culprit.

So far I've found...in a cardboard box ( why? ) , a jar of Branston Pickle and a bottle of salad cream, both unopened.

I don't think they'd be much use at Border control though.......

Gwyn

As your younger daughter was with you on the last trip, has she hung on to them or watched where Dad put them?

lol
Stray,I think you are right there
My hubby is always looking for his things in the wrong place
I am sure men have short term memory loss when it comes to remembering just where they put things *for safety*
tuts in amazement

if a mans involved its probably lost forever lol xxx

I once lost a watch, for nearly three years.
found it in HER bedside cabinet.
can only think that when I was working away when I got home early in the morning, I'd slid in Her side of the bed( cos it was warm there,)
and might've put the watch in the cupboard myself......

Bob

I think you can safely say Gwyn, it will be in one of the places hubby says he's already looked and 'it's not there' ...........


Like you say if it's not shouting and waving at them, men never see anything - they don't move stuff, just do a surface glance - my dad is always doing that and me or mum will find it where he's looked *rolls eyes*

Mo
I think I'll do that now........

Gwyn

Does he have a bedside cupboard/drawer Gwyn? Or his underwear drawer. A drawer where you keep stationery, or a jewellery box.

Other than that start at the front door and work through the house!! Good luck

You must re-search where hubby says he has looked
I have found loads of things by ignoring hubby saying *its not there,Ive looked *
lol

Which no doubt you've been waving about a lot lol. I'm off to work again - hope they turn up:))

Lol Uggers.
Yes, maybe not a good idea.
I was carrying the guide book. We still have that safe !

Gwyn

Gwyn, you do realise it's your fault for trusting one of us to take care of of it don't you?

Great ideas and comments, ... Thanks.

We had hoped to take grandson on a daytrip during half term.
His is the only passport here. His mum ( our daughter) asked us to keep it with ours as she knows I could normally find them with my eyes shut.

Lost are mine, OH's and our younger daughters, as she was with us on our last trip.

Gwyn

Still haven't found my tape measure.

I often find something long after I've given up looking for it. I come across it by chance when I'm looking for the next thing I've lost.
