The garage gremlins

Who else has gremlins in their garage?

When i lived in leamington, they would sneak around the garage late at night and hide the scribe, it would turn up occasionally for a few minutes before being hidden again.

Now, its usually the key fob for the door that they like to run off with, however today for reasons unknown to me, I can only find one out of the pair of shoes i use when im in the garage. Why??????

Now obviously, being a bloke i just remove from my feet and replace with other shoes and walk off. Its not like i actually tidy them up, so they should be exactly next to where i put on my normal shoes. I've searched high and low, and I still can't find it.

Gremlins i tell you....

they usually hide all my stuff. sometimes i find them again. sometimes they go missing completely. i'm sure they're building an identical car to mine, and it'll probably be done quicker too...

When I'm doing anything under a car they always hide spanners underneath me so I think I have been lying on them all along.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

My FAV 10/11 mm Britool spanner went missing for about 3 years, so i bought a replacement, but not quite matching the others but did the job,

and of coarse my lost one turned up

Socks!
Seriously in the past 2 years I've bought about 50 pairs of socks, now I have 5 (wouldn't mind but I bought 6 pairs 2 weeks ago!)
Most of the time I wear them once and they vanish

Perhaps one of the spiders in there has grown so big it's started needing footwear?

Would that make it "category 4"?
