Lost...Trying to impress a new girlfriend, I 'borrowed' my mother's car. Dropping her off in London, I managed to lose the car keys between locking it and reaching the other side of the road. Utter humiliation followed as my mum took the train to London with the spare key...
What have you lost over the years?

Quite a few things...In '93 my family went to Majorca (see previous QOTW for the near-death experience I had there!) and on the flight back I took off my glasses so I could sleep with my head resting on its side without the arms cutting into my face.
Got back to Manchester Airport where my brother was waiting to pick us all up, and we were halfway back home (about 50 miles) before I realised that I couldn't actually see much in front of me. I'd just put it down to being tired, but I'd gone and left my specs in the little pouch on the back of the seat in front.
Went to Scotland earlier in the year for a family christening. Got back home after a couple of days and realised I didn't know where my digital camera was. Figured that it must have fallen out of my pocket whilst in a taxi. Provided a good excuse to upgrade to a newer model anyway!
Lo and behold, a month later I find the leather case that I used to keep the camera in - but without the camera. I'm sure I took that case with me to Scotland, so I'm buggered if I know where the camera's gone.
