I think I'm losing the plot!

I have just found the missing button from and item I sold a couple of days ago in my fridge.:o :rotfl:

I said I had it in the listing and stated it would be sent with the item. So I've just messaged the buyer to explain and said that I'll post it Monday.

I'll spend the rest of the day now, wondering how on earth it got into the fridge in the first place! :rotfl:

Anyone else had anything daft like that happen?

    Have you checked your button box-sewing basket, just in case you've put a pint of milk or butter in there.

    Or the bottle of wine that helped this happen!

    I have found so much in my bin and the intended bin items elsewhere....
  • I lost a key to my bike lock about a year ago. Looked everywhere for it but ended up using the spare and practically gluing it to my keyring. I found the key today - in the side pocket of my panniers! Sure I looked there too, think I would have rather found it in the fridge, would have been a bit less ironic !

    My mum says that in my clubbing years she always knew if I had come home drunk because the milk was in the cupboard and the cocoa was in the fridge.
    Oh dear, here we go again.
