Having cut my hand slightly yesterday I covered the cut with a plaster (as you do!). Left the plaster on when I went to bed. Woke up this morning, plaster missing from my hand. Searched the bed, no sign of the plaster, searched around and under the bed again no sign of it! Does the tooth fairy have a cousin who goes around collecting used plasters!

Incidentally I changed the sheets today and carefully checked them and the pillow cases before putting them in the washing machine - no plaster!

Maybe you felt peckish in your sleep and ate it?

Have you checked your nightie/jammies?

I feel your pain Beckett I was taking meds at the kitchen table after breakfast and dropped one on the floor which disappeared completely. I'm on hands and knees searching for but no its simply not there 🤷‍♀️

Have you checked your nightie/jammies?

Yes - still no sign!

I have long thought that Polly, our resident poltergeist (who regularly steals things, keeps them for a week or so and then returns them to a totally different different place) occasionally takes a few weeks holiday, at this time nothing here goes missing. Could it be that she is on holiday at your house? Don’t worry, things generally turn up and I don’t doubt that if she is on holiday with you, she will be back home very shortly!

Could it be stuck on your back? Or if you share a bed, someone else’s?

Did you have a strange dream about chewing something?

Beckett, Tanith, get a 3 year old round - they'll find it!

Check the washing machine - oh what I find there

I was using a tube of ointment while sitting on the side of the bed. Where did the cap go. I've stripped the bed, been under the bed. That was a week ago. No doubt it will eventually turn up.
I no longer do a big search if something unimportant goes missing. The item will be somewhere totally unrelated and I'll come across it sometime. I just tell my dh.... let me know if you see X, Y or Z.
