AIBU to think neighbours are using my dryer?

[DontThinkSoBro]

In our block of flats each floor consists of 2 flats which share a drying room on the landing. The drying rooms are jointly owned by the two flats, we have a key each & our own tumble dryers on each side of the room.

New neighbours have moved in - lovely so far, no issues at all... except over the weekend I found one of their sons socks in my dryer & last night I found one of the woman’s socks in my dryer. 100% no mistaking that they are theirs as we only have plain socks & these are most definitely a little boys socks & a woman’s pair of patterned socks.

I absolutely don’t want to cause an argument about it. Could there be another simple explanation that I’m not thinking of as to how twice now, their socks have ended up in my dryer?

How would I approach this without causing a rift with otherwise very nice people?

What a bonkers idea to have shared drying rooms where each person pays for their own use ... clearly it will be abused as CFs are everywhere!

I don't care if it's a zombie... I just want the OP to return, so I can find out the denouement

Ooohhh I remember this. What happened in the end @DontThinkSoBro

Yes, I need an update please

@DontThinkSoBro

I remember this too-please come back OP!!!

Also wanting to know what happened next....

Why do I suddenly care so much about this?

Put a note on the dryer saying whoever is using my dryer please stop.

You do realise all a dryer does is dry clothes? It's not a time machine.

It's a little known fact that single socks will crawl in to a dark space to avoid danger from stray dogs.

I suspect the socks have been accidentally dropped and have slithered into your machine without them working out whose machine it was. (Even coloured socks aren't actually that bright.)

Cut a hole in the toe and I can assure you that the socks will have learnt a lesson and won't do it again.
