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?

OnceI was fooling around on a merry-go-round in the park, with a camera in my pocket. Well, when I got off, it was gone. I was pretty pissed off, and I looked around for it, but it was dark so I gave up and came back to look for it the next day. Still couldn't find it. I gave up and bought a new camera.
About a year and a half later, I was sitting in the same park, where they were installing a new merry-go-round. I was watching the fat hairy workers digging where the old one was to make room for a bigger one, when I saw one pick up a camera, try to turn it on, and throw it to the side. I didn't pay it any mind for a few minutes, because I'd forgotten about it, but after a bit I realized it was MY camera.
I rushed over there to pick it up. It was caked in dirt and stuff, but I took it home to poke at it. Out of curiousity I took the batteries out, cleaned the contacts and put a new set in, and amazingly, it worked! All the pics were still there. Yaaay.
