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?

$4000......I had four thousand dollars for a house deposit in a large wallet/manbag type thing. I picked my wife up from work in Goodna - one of the roughest suburbs west of Brisbane - and after about 20 minutes driving I realised I didn't have the wallet anymore. I had left it on the car roof and drove off and suffice to say it wasn't there now. I drove back to Goodna like a bat out of hell and on approaching the suspected "drop zone" I could see it laying on the roadside. I also saw a rather large intoxicated idigenous gentleman going to pick it up so I tooted the horn to startle him and parked on top of the wallet to stop the fucker from picking it up. He was not best pleased as he now claimed my car was parked over "his" wallet. We argued a bit and he went to thump me but as he did so one of his family/friends/drinking buddies came up and belted him for "always causing trouble".
Not one dollar missing from the wallet either.
