my wrist watch, where did it go????

i noticed it had gone missing a few days ago, ie last friday evening after coming back from the funeral. Did I loose it at the cremetorium? or back for the wake at the house? or even at the service station where we stopped for a break?

I hunted high and low for it, in the garage ,in the office, every room in he house, Could I find it? could I hell ! had it been pinched or just fell off?
So ordered another to go as a posh do watch .
I have had that watch for around 20 years and never lost time or stopped working. So given up hope of ever seeing it again.

Damn idiot arn't I, seems it was on my office desk and fell into an outdoor shoe on the floor beside the desk. How or when it fell got no idea but glad to have got it back. only just found it
But in a shoe I ask you, who would dream of looking there

In a shoe ? That's novel ! If you find a pearl brooch in your other shoe I lost it last Tuesday

All's well that ends well, Bazza.
Glad you found it again.
It's a horrible panic feeling when you lose something you're so fond of like that, isn't it.

Your timing is spot on, Sekonda to none.

Congrats on finding it.
I hate losing things....I'd rather give something away than lose it.

That reminds me of a rhyme
Mary had a wristlet watch
She swallowed it one day,
Now she's taking Beecham's pills to pass the time away!

You've got to face it, he was lucky to find it! I hope he can cancel the other one in time!

I lost my wife once....some buggar found her wandering down a country lane and brought her back

I was sure I'd tied her wrists tightly.
