to ask you to help with my office battle?

[CopperHandle]

Bloke and I at work having A Dispute over a fiver.
He believes that the fiver is mine, I believe that it is his.
Cue the Fiver War of 2017.

So far he has hidden the fiver between the keys of my keyboard, in my office trainers (kept under my desk) and tucked in the grid cover of my desk fan.

I have stuck it under his mouse (covering the sensor) and taped it HEAVILY with washi tape (brightly coloured masking tape) to his desk.

Fiver is currently on my desk.

I need HELP, please lovely Mumsnetters - I am very competitive in need of a win this week

not placemarking honest!!

OP please Facebook stalk and found out if he's single - I'm expecting this thread to end in a wedding and would like to know now if that's not going to happen to save my hopes being dashed

Your drawer doesn't seem too packed, surely you'd have seen it earlier

Surely the only response to this is to put it in a jar on his desk labelled "First Date Fund" & a little note saying, "Since we can't agree, let's share it."

FrustratedTeddyLamp Probably, though my washing machine broke last week so my mother has been doing my laundry cringe which means the majority of it is all folded in a big basket on the landing (I haven't had time to put it away yet) so I've been grabbing my outfits from that, rather than the drawers.

I mean, breaking into someones house and hiding stuff in their drawers is highly unlikely, right?
Having said that, does anyone remember the thread about the Nanny in a haunted log cabin in Colarado with the footprints and the Bloodman? 'Cause that was me. And the scary dolls in the street in Switzerland thread? Creepy stuff happens to me. A LOT.

Nevertheless, that's not a very realistic underwear drawer.

It's like the Blair Witch Project of underwear drawers. You want to believe in it for the thrills; but it just, in the end, is all a bit pants.

LineysRun laughed out loud and scared the cat then.
You should see my mother's underwear drawer, looks like an ikea ad

I almost bought that. It was a lovely story

You went too far OP.

It all sounded really sweet until the underwear - that would freak me out :(

Surely the only response to this is to put it in a jar on his desk labelled "First Date Fund" & a little note saying, "Since we can't agree, let's share it

That is the only response to someone potentially breaking into your home and accessing your underwear drawer? Really?! What shoeshavesouls said makes more sense.

This thread has made me want to choose someone at work to go through all these methods of torture. .

Too far, too far.

:)

not placemarking whatsoever

I wanted to believe it....

Yes, this all seems credible.

Jimmy agrees.

Chinny reckon. Eh?

What on earth is going on? I mean, I know I'm knackered but even so!
Am sure I'm being extremely thick

I don't know what a place mark is

huh?

placemarking with a confused face.

There has to be a rational explanation for this!

If it's a newish packet of socks could you have chucked them in there along with the £5 change?
