HOW? Tiny flat. Was on the kitchen windowsill for the plants. I left it there and now it isn't there Confused

Anyone else lost things too big to realistically lose?

Out the window? (From experience) 🙈

SneakyGremlins · 11/03/2019 20:23

Window isn't reachable currently! It's seriously a tiny kitchen, I don't understand where it went or how I lost something the size of my head Grin

It eloped with the ironing board?

TomorrowIsFree · 11/03/2019 20:24

Fridge

ApolloandDaphne · 11/03/2019 20:24

Yup. With the ironing board. No doubt.

It’ll be happy somewhere with my 2l jug... possibly in another dimension

SrSteveOskowski · 11/03/2019 20:27

Did that ironing board ever turn up?

SneakyGremlins · 11/03/2019 20:27

Noooooo not the ironing board!

I have found a one litre jug I lost six months ago Hmm

Lurking to see if the ironing board turns up while you're looking for it

SurgeHopper · 11/03/2019 20:27

Oh god not another

Check the attic, landlord etc

I found my naice measuring jug in the bathroom cabinet. DH had been using it for urine measuring for a doctors appointment Hmm. Plenty of other cheap plastic measuring jugs in my cupboard but no he had to use that one.

So basically check the bathroom.

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 11/03/2019 20:32

Does anyone know what ever happened with the ironing board?

I have lost my fav red kitchen scissors but I think I threw them away with the recycling so I have given up...

SneakyGremlins · 11/03/2019 20:32

mog I hope you made him buy another.

I’ve lost the hoover (hooray!). I have no idea where it could have run away to.

HelmutFrontbut · 11/03/2019 20:34

I lost a set of step ladders five years ago! Disappeared, never to be seen again Shock

User5trillion · 11/03/2019 20:36

I have lost my good kitchen tongs, they are perfect for serving noodles and pasta. The rubbish ones are still.in the drawer, I swear at them every time I use them.

MummySparkle · 11/03/2019 20:37

We lost our pizza cutter wheel thingy. Could not fathom where it disappeared to as we'd used it the day before and I could have sworn I put it in the dishwasher.

It turned up 3 months later in the giant bag of dog food!! our dog went to stay with a friend for the weekend and she found it. It could easily have fallen off the side into there, but how come I didn't notice it as I put my hand into the bag twice a day to get his food out Confused

OP if the jug is the size of your head, have you checked that it isn't on your head?! Wink

MummySparkle · 11/03/2019 20:39

Also hi Gremlins! (didn't actually look at any names Blush ) It's not in your neighbours bin is it?!?! Wink

cricketmum84 · 11/03/2019 20:45

Definitely with the ironing board and the 100000 kindles that went missing 😂

SneakyGremlins · 11/03/2019 20:45

It's not on my head, or in the bin...

Losing a hoover is impressive.

It's eloped with my 2 litre jug, which went missing months ago and dh is sick of me moaning about it and my good tattie pan that has been AWOL for 3 years now.
Where the fuck do they go?

MummySparkle · 11/03/2019 20:46

Blame the cat then!

MsMightyTitanAndHerTroubadours · 11/03/2019 20:47

somebody borrowed it to refill the car window washer and has used it to mix the blue sqoosh

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 11/03/2019 20:53

My DH lost a lasagne .....in a large Pyrex rectangular dish. That I had made , lovingly with my own fair hands.

DD phoned me to tell me where they'd looked . I said "Try the microwave"......... It was in the Microwave
