    Where do you keep your hairdryer? You went straight to the hairdryer and picked it up, perhaps putting down anything else you had in your hand at the time? Have you checked down the side of/underneath all the furniture near to where the hairdryer is kept?
    Just run, run and keep on running!

    Is it inside your laptop? How about in a CD case? What about the washing machine? it'll be in the last place you look (mainly cos once you find it, you'll stop looking :rotfl:)


    Has it gone to find my cashcard :eek: ? I know it's somewhere in the house but where is completely beyond me. Fortunately I have another account with the same bank (and I know where that card is) so I've just transferred it all out!
    We may not have it all together, but together we have it all :beer:

    This is a serious suggestion although at first sight you may consider it flippant. In my experience, when I have "mislaid" something and start searching for it, I invariably discover something that I had "mislaid" previously.
    The solution therefore, is to look for something that you "mislaid" some time ago. This approach hasn't let me down in the past.
    Hope you find it very soon.

    Did anyone read about the older lady who got taken to court recently for using cannabis.In court she claimed she had lost some cannabis, which she had put in her bra,she actually said it had been stolen.She then found it in her handbag (the cannabis,not her bra)..now thats really embarrassing...could be worse..

    Have you checked the washing machine's filter? How about the tumble drier (that's where my card was :confused:)

    How about a makeup or jewellery box? Inside a newspaper? In one of your shoes? A glasses case? What about the fridge and freezer?

    Hope you find it soon...or at least before the mice have spent it all on cheese and chocolate :rotfl:
