Who amongst my illustrious fellow gardeners has a wee people door in their house? I have mysteriously lost my garden clippers and since the spade and prongy things are still there, I can only assume the wee people took them!
Anyone else lose things in a mysterious way?

All the time, but I have a real live 'wee person' residing here, a seven year old daughter.

Yep, they dwell at the bottom of our garden and I understand they live on odd socks that they steal from the washing machine, along with teaspoons

ooo and mine particularly like the little notes I make for myself daily... I think they take the bits and shred them and make nests....

There is a black hole in my house. I have no idea where exactly but It's where sellotape, scissors, cigg lighters, bandages, safety pins, batteries etc etc all get sucked into. Once buying a new roll of sellotape and safety pins, the black hole blows them back out in the night while I am sleeping into the very place I first looked for them.

LMAO that's exactly what I was going to say! :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl
They particularly love socks!
They do sometimes bring things back though . . . and for some strange reason they usually leave them in the fridge! [scratch head smiley] :-2

I did climb through a window into my brothers house once and re-arranged all the furnature while he was at work. To this day he hasn't a clue how it happened.

Pray to Saint Anthony. He's an underused resource as people don't ask him for help these days. He's never failed me yet!
(Well, apart from not telling me the winning lottery numbers in advance, but then, I suppose you couldn't really call those 'lost' could you?

)

Dogs baskets are a good place to look first. My puppy would probably even have Raven's prongy thing in there. I have found tube's of toothpaste, toilet rolls, my mobile phone, purse and the remote in there on occassions. then she looks at me as if to say 'Who?? ME???
