Ok. I have actually found them now. The keys to my lockable tow hitch pin.
… but I thought it would be fun to see who could guess first where I found them and then maybe I could get you a prize or something 🤷🏽♂️
One guess per forum member!
Where you left them…
last place you looked?
Most definitely not
In the laundry basket.
In the fridge.
keys to my lockable tow hitch pin.
Still in your lockable tow hitch pin, having driven hundreds of miles?
Still in the tow hitch lock.
In the dog
On the piano
On the key ring with the house keys?
In the bowl
Where your better half has tidied them to? Assumes you have a better half
In the bowl
But who's bowl...
In a shoe.
Borrowed by your son from the future for time-travelling adventures?
If you're anything like me, they're in your other hand.

Bread bin?
Someone I worked with was late to work one because he couldn’t find his work pass. It was found some hours later in the bread bin. He had had toast for breakfast.
In your other coat pocket.

That's a similar story to why I suggested 'fridge' above - a colleague had bought some chilled food at lunchtime and, in an attempt not to forget to take it home, put her car keys in the work fridge along with the food. She then promptly forgot that she'd done it and spent an age turning work upside down trying to find her keys.
I thought you had arrived at the campsite and realised that the key to the top-box was left at home!
If it was like my key discovery at the weekend.
It was in a pair of waterproof trousers that I'd not worn for at least 4 years!
Item found was the spare key for a VW Polo we sold 2 years ago, oops!
In the cupboard where you keep drinking glasses.
They should be in the cutlery drawer in the kitchen 2steps from the back door you came in not in the study/ bathroom/bedroom /kit bag /coat
I don’t think you are my wife.?
I put my keys in the cutlery drawer last week where they got covered by knives,I looked all over…then used spare set for a few days oh how they laughed
In the bowl
In the bowel
I lost 2 sets of garage keys once, had one spare but didn't want to risk it so changed the locks. About 6 months later I found one set in a toy bin in my daughters bedroom and the other set in the peg bag outside!!
Any way, In a pair of trouser you left at home?
On your head
...oh hang on thats glasses
In the usual place.
(Now where's that?)
Under the billabong.

My old boss was late one day. Because he couldn't find his keys to unlock the door......
In the cupboard where you keep drinking glasses.
WOW, I've only got reading glasses, I'd no idea there was some available for drinking too.
I think I'd best speak to that optician of mine.
Hmmm… one person was pretty close.
Mine are generally in the first jacket pocket I check.
Sadly I only realise that after I’ve turned the house upside down and go back to check the first jacket properly…
Freezer?
Wellll
On your car keys.
Inside whatever the tow-hitch is attached to?
I’m afraid I have a real problem with this, putting something down then not being able to find the item three minutes later! 🫢
My car keys were a particular issue, I’d come home from work, start a conversation with Joey my sadly late partner, absent-mindedly put them down, then have no idea where the bloody things were when I needed them to go to work the next morning.
Jo would get very cross!
I subsequently bought a couple of AirTags, but sadly in the meantime Joey passed away, so I haven’t mislaid my keys because I haven’t anyone to distract me when I get home, I go straight upstairs to change out of my work clothes and put my keys on the dresser first of all.
Doesn’t mean I won’t put the damn things down somewhere else and forget where, it’s sadly all too likely, which is why the AirTag is still firmly attached to them!
I managed to lose my wallet once, it slipped out of my pocket when I took a car to our remote storage area. It was one car among nearly a thousand others, and I couldn’t recall which car it might have been, I’d taken at least half a dozen down.
The bloke on security was required to make a note of the car registration and its location; so far, so good. His writing was illegible, even he couldn’t read his own writing!
It did turn up, third car along the first row my team leader and I started looking along. That’s got a tracker inside now, I don’t want to have that situation again.
Then there was the time I lost my car in Swindon…
Washing machine
Reminds me of a Terry Pratchett quote:
There is a rumour going around that I have found God. I think this is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.
Washing machine?
I'm constantly surprised how waterproof the remote is for my car alarm.
(Might be why they're called Toad.)
More than once seen/heard my keys taunting me from the other side of the perspex door that thou shalt not open until the white box reluctantly agrees to release the latch.
Ah, beaten to it
In the hood of the coat you took off when you got home and hung up in the understairs cupboard before panicking a couple of days later that you might have dropped your door tow hitch keys outside the front door tow hitch fitting and rushed out to buy new lock barrels before going to work pulling the hood up and being smacked on the head by the missing keys?
Dunno but I never did find my spoke key so if you could share where you found them maybe it’ll give me a new place to check.
