My birthday money, in cash and in an envelope. Really hope I haven’t recycled it or burnt it when we have the fire going on my birthday evening! Want to cry…!

Mine made me sad. My mum gave us a set of stellar pans as a housewarming when DH and I got our first shared place. Nearly thirty years ago. She died a few years later far too young

Last night the handle of the biggest saucepan sheared off. Not reparable. They've been brilliant pans. Almost daily use so I can't complain. But I felt ridiculously upset when it went into the recycling bin. In fact I got it back out convincing myself that I'll use the handle less pan maybe on a bbq. In the very unlikely event I maybe want to reheat beans in a bbq.

Not lost as such - 17 month old (decent) laptop screen blacked out. Replaced cost £565.00 🥲

Ouch!!

Not as bad as yours - I lost a webcam this week. It always lives in a drawer underneath my printer when I'm not using it. It's not there now, so I don't know how it's gone missing. Not fallen down the back of my sofa or anything.

I can't remember how much I paid for it originally, but the same model is currently £90 if I was to re-buy it.

Mr Dotty Potter dropped his wallet when out a few weeks ago and got it back.
Lost an umbrella just before Christmas. It was quite a nice one. Within 10 mins it was gone.
Several things we can't find around the house at the moment.

No chance of me losing my glasses because I can't see without them!
