Lost Keys!

HOW ON EARTH THIS CAN HAPPEN I've no idea: I lost my keys IN MY ROOM while I was asleep. The door was locked (but not the window!~ aha!!) Surely they can only have slipped down the side of the bed. They had an NA "one day clean" fob and lots of tinkly jangly things like a revolving coin-head thing from Cancun, Mexico (where I've never been) in other words having lost them too many times I weighed them down a lot and made them as jangly as possible...

... two days later and having thrown the entire room up in the air there's STILL NO SIGN OF THEM!!

What on earth am I going to do? I'm reduced to just leaving my room unlocked when I go out.

The front door isn't as much hassle. Basically you just let it click behind you, then when you want to come in again, gently press on the door (or just sneeze when the wind's right) and wahey!! Door comes barging in!!

ABBA: TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
This song has royal heritage. It's what King Hussein of Jordan sang when he was wooing Queen Noor... (true!)

  1. Did you look in all the unlikely places? in the fridge, etc., in case you put them down "just for a sec" and forgot you did?? I've been missing a key for years, and I know it will turn up in a pocket somewhere . . .

  2. Can you not get your landlord to cut another set?

  3. I always end up doing that. Maybe check your pockets of your pants or jackets or something. I'm sure you'll find it eventually.

    BTW, is that really true about the ABBA song? I can't believe it! = )

  5. Now have checked the fur kids? Perhaps they have them tucked away in one of their nests! Perhaps they have a plan to keep you in and amusing them!

  6. I lost my keys once, about 10 years ago, the first and only time, and I've never seen them since...who knows?

  7. I once lost three Cirque du Soliel tickets. I know they are at home. I turned the whole place upside down and they still haven't surfaced. fortunately they were re-issued and nobody else turned up to argue that we were in 'their' seats. I blame goblns. They collect treasure you know.

  8. Partly why my most of my mates have spare keys...

    Of course, I can't lock the keys in the flat. You need the keys to shut the door. The lock mechanism has been damaged that way (Dating from when the Police forced it to do a drugs search)

  9. hello!

    i hope you find them. i'd find it hard to do anything else but look and look and look again in all the same places...

    did the little furries hide them?

  10. I lost my watch in my bathroom once. I took it off, had a bath, went to put it back on and it wasn't there. I never saw it again. Bastard thieving goblins. Hope you find your keys.
