I "only" took some gear with me on the way back home. :)

Do you remember seeing the glove when you collected your items, and can you remember what time it was?

Simone (simato73), I had also heard you (or someone??) lost some keys? Did you find them? I wanted to let you (or whomever) know that I looked under sofas & beds and under sofa cushions for lost keys and other items before I left the cottage but I did not find any keys. I hope you did find those.

I did find a 1-pound coin between two sofa cushions which I left for the cleaners to find. "-)

That was me, but it was a false alarm. The keys were in my suitcase and I found them after one day.

Whatever is not claimed - I will send my address.
The cashmere owner haven't looked for his cashmere yet - Better you ask WHO on the trip owns a cashmere  ;D ;D ;D
(better skip the battery - I think everyone owns one of those)

Well a Nikon EN-EL-3e battery was supplied with the D700, D300S, D300, and D200 cameras.  That might narrow things down a little.

(It also works in the D100, D70, D70S, and the D50.)

I have lots of Cashmere stuff but I took all of it home.

This IS a funny thread for all who have not lost anything.

Poor Simone.

Have you heared of the famous Scotch "glove eater"?

It is a cat like creatue with a beaver tail that lives beneath
old oak trees and needs one glove a year to build a nest for
her litter to raise. Never seen one in UV or IR though.....

If the glove was anywhere close to a washing machine it is probably gone forever...    :)

Yeah... go on, laugh at me.
This is a serious matter.
That poor little glove is out there all alone,  scared and it is pining to be reunited with me.

That cashmere "Red Herring" brand is a Scottish one, I think. So it might have been left by previous tenants unless some NG member went shopping while in Scotland? I certainly wanted to, but refrained this time due to the rather steep airline ticket price I'm going to be paying soon when the credit card bill arrives. (...groan....)

I know that glove was with the lost & found at some point because Anthony & I looked at it. It could be that it is hitch-hiking home even as I write. It might also have met a nice companion and is off on a lark. You never know with gloves.

P.S. Happy to hear the keys were safe.

Soon enough I will be receiving postcards from my glove, posted from all over the world.
