They are probably with my reading glasses that I lose 20 times a day!!

I'll put my cross on the bookshelf, behind your dogeared copy of The Lord of the Rings.

Is there a prize? grin

DH found them, ate them and then buried the box at the bottom of the bin. Xx

Youā€™re describing my life, bytheway. I was going to suggest the dog found them anyway but he/she would have left a chewed up tube somewhere. I canā€™t help you but if they turn up, do let us know!

At this point I usually give up. They are somewhere totally random and logical thinking doesn't work.

Iā€™ve checked the fridge and fairly certain OH has no idea I had them in the first place. Itā€™s so strange.

Back in the fridge? Or DH has hidden them?

Yesterday I fancied some chocolate and knew there were a few tubes of smarties in the fridge. I had a handful of smarties and then put them down somewhere before I walked in the lounge, I did this for 2 reasons 1) we donā€™t like to have chocolate anywhere near the dog due to it being potentially poisonous to dogs and 2) Iā€™m supposed to be being ā€˜goodā€™ as I am trying to lose weight and didnā€™t want OH to know Iā€™d had some.

They were lovely, so lovely in fact, 2 minutes after entering the lounge I exited again to get some moreā€¦.but where did I put the tube? Iā€™ve searched everywhere. Thereā€™s only so many places to hide chocolate between the kitchen and the lounge. I must of hidden it above waist level to avoid the dog having any chance of finding it.

How the heck could I forget after only 2 minutes where I put that tube. Iā€™ve searched again todayā€¦nothingā€¦I am dumbfounded šŸ§
