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! :thinking:



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. :D

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! :D

(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? :lips: )

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???
