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?

Rampant stupidityI went to see Sly and the Family Stone when I was about 16. There was a cloakroom at the club, so I took off my new black leather coat and put it on a hanger. Surprise - when I came back to the cloakroom hours later, it was gone! Imagine that! I left the club a slightly smarter guy, and shivered all the way home.
Thirty-five years later, a guy came into my athletic club, took off his 3/4 length leather coat and put it on a hanger in the coat rack. He changed and went for a workout. I found out later that when he returned, his coat was gone. Whoever stole it fished his car keys out of a pocket, strode into the parking lot and pressed a button. The guy's Jaguar said "I'M RIGHT OVER HERE, DUDE!" So the thief jumped in and drove away.
