Firstly, I would like to relate a conversation that I had with a work colleague this afternoon. No names but he is in his mid-seventies and is relatively "all there" or was!

He walks into the office and I greet him. His immediate reply is "Have you ever lost something and been unable to find it? I've been looking all morning,"

"Yes" I replied, "so what have you lost?"

"Can't find them anywhere, I've looked and looked and looked" says he. - - and then invites me to guess what it is that he has lost

I had a couple of outrageous guesses and finally insisted he told me!

"My bottom set of dentures" he says. "My top set were in the cup and my bottom set should have been with them - - but they weren't. I had a small ulcer a couple of weeks back, I often have them, and take my teeth out , wrap them up in a bit of tissue and stick them in my pocket - - but I know I were wearing them last Thursday, I had a pork chop for tea. just can't understand where they've got to"

He continued this conversation for some time after and by the end, I didn't know whether I was going to laugh out loud - or throw up

but it got me wondering,

Has any accyweb member lost or misplaced anything embarrassing or weird and had to admit it?
