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?

Don't know why I forgot about this butI once lost myself on the beach. As a matter of fact it was about a month ago. We were staying with a friend for my dad's birthday, and I felt like a walk on the beach, despite it being about 11pm. I didn't expect it to be very cold, so I didn't wear a jacket. I went across the street from the house to a public access and ran around for an hour, and noticed that it was ABSOLUTELY DARK except for the light from the lighthouse, which didn't really help. I spent another hour looking for an access to no avail. I was in a really long stretch where there weren't any houses, and the dunes were full of sharp rocks and plants and feral cats and foxes etc. so my only choice was to keep walking in pitch black until I found a house. I had to climb over a pointy gate and risk setting off a security system to get back to the road, and then walked all the way back to the house. I finally got back about 2am. Lovely.
