View Full Version : Where is the Telly Remote THIS time? :( Crosser 27-09-2008, 16:24 Suggestions please? Ouija 27-09-2008, 16:33 It'll be in the last place you look! (Yeah I know, you wouldn't find it and keep looking! :hihi: ) Mine likes to hide behind the sofa cushions, but it has travelled all over the house. Crosser 27-09-2008, 16:41 It'll be in the last place you look! (Yeah I know, you wouldn't find it and keep looking! :hihi: ) Mine likes to hide behind the sofa cushions, but it has travelled all over the house. Tried there, but to no avail :( Ouija 27-09-2008, 16:45 Tried there, but to no avail :( Retrace your steps, if possible? Mine has been found in the fridge, kitchen table, coffee table drawer, on top of a speaker, to name but a few places. If you have ankle biters, the search area widens considerably. My son likes to offer the remote to the dog, for instance. :confused: medusa 27-09-2008, 16:47 The furthest afield I've found mine was in the car, but that was easy to find compared to the time that I found it in the fridge. Open every cupboard door ;) Crosser 27-09-2008, 16:54 Looked in the above places, still not found it though :(( medusa 27-09-2008, 16:59 Just remembered- the very hardest place to find it was inside the sofa. I've got no idea how it happened, but the remote for the stereo disappeared and we just assumed that it had gone home with the children in their bag one day on their way home to see their mum (like lots of things did) so we stopped looking for it. A year later, when we were scrapping the sofa and getting a new one, my ex-husband turned the sofa on its end to get it out of the living room door and something went clunk. We had to cut the base out of the sofa to get it out, so heaven knows how it got in there, but sure enough, there was the stereo remote. Ouija 27-09-2008, 17:06 Looked in the above places, still not found it though :(( Do you have a mr/mrs (dunno if your male or female, sorry). Perhaps s/he is hinting you spend too much time in front of the telly? Or just having a laugh. I have been tempted to do this myself in the past! shaznay 27-09-2008, 17:16 how about the garden shed.... EdnaKrabappe 27-09-2008, 17:40 Maybe it's with my black top that I wanted to wear tonight. :( On a more positive note I've found an expensive sock I thought I'd lost down the back of the boiler. I bought some blackberries last week and I've no idea where they went (I live alone.) I dread them turning up all mouldy. Crosser 27-09-2008, 17:40 I have dissected the couch and interrogated the missus with water-torture, but still no sign of the flippin remote :( shaznay 27-09-2008, 17:52 top of the wardrobe maybe............. Jabberwocky 27-09-2008, 17:56 Hidng inside the freshly stripped carcasse of a sperm whale. scarby 27-09-2008, 17:59 Did you sit on it? :o Crosser 27-09-2008, 18:04 Shaznay: It's hardly gonna be on my sterile "launch platform" (or is it?) ;-) Jab: I couldn't find a sperm whale, so I tried a dead cat I saw at the side of the road, not there either though :( Scarby: Are you suggesting that it has gotten lost up my Gary? How very dare you? ! PoddingtonP 27-09-2008, 18:10 make some dowsing rods out of a couple of wire coat hangers or some welding wire never fails in our house :thumbsup: Jabberwocky 27-09-2008, 18:33 "In a dark, dark town, there was a dark, dark street, in the dark, dark street, there was a dark, dark house, in the dark, dark house, there were dark, dark stairs, and in the dark, dark stairs, some skeletons lived. There was a big skeleton. A little skeleton. And a dog skeleton....... with your remote! Ally68 27-09-2008, 18:44 I've got it! muhuwhahahaha! :evil: Crosser 27-09-2008, 19:16 This is all getting a little "surreal" Dog Skeletons, dowsing rods and evil laughs ............ It's a conspiracy! And my Remote is STILL missing :( Jabberwocky 27-09-2008, 19:20 Remember Davros? Leader and creator of the Daleks? He has it, hes incorporated it into his chair and since his defeat at the hands of Dr Who, its now attached to his frozen corpse as it orbits the remains of a planet thats orbiting the remains of a burned out sun on the outer fringes of the galaxy. Crosser 27-09-2008, 19:39 Remember Davros? Leader and creator of the Daleks? He has it, hes incorporated it into his chair and since his defeat at the hands of Dr Who, its now attached to his frozen corpse as it orbits the remains of a planet thats orbiting the remains of a burned out sun on the outer fringes of the galaxy. I do indeed remember Davros, he was a a kinda paraplegic megalomaniac who sounded just like "Mr Bronson" out of "Grange Hill" in the 80's.... I have just de-materialised and asked him if he knows the wherabouts of my telly remote, and he assures me that it is still somewhere within the constraints of my temporal domain (EG it must be here somewhere!) .... The search continues................. Jabberwocky 27-09-2008, 20:39 Ok then- and this just MAY be a bit of a longshot so feel free not to follow my advice but... It may have fallen through one of the micro black holes that the Hadron collider created and it might- just might have been crushed into something smaller than an atom in the nanosecond before the black hole evaporated. Either that or it could have fallen onto the floor and been kicked under the settee. Id go for the black hole theory myself but then... I would, wouldnt I...? lolliew 28-09-2008, 15:07 is it in the microwave? mort 28-09-2008, 20:50 In a pocket? a Handbag? lurking down the back of the telly? ShinyPurple 28-09-2008, 20:53 It has run off with a sock :D Jabberwocky 28-09-2008, 20:56 Twixt the jaws of a camel spider in Iraq? lolliew 28-09-2008, 21:02 is it in the ironing pile? on top of the sky box? in the cutlery draw? in the bathroom (all places mine has been found today) ShinyPurple 28-09-2008, 21:14 If you are a man - it's right next to your hand but surrounded by a forcefield that renders it invisible to male eyesight. However it is still clearly visible to any women in the vicinity :P Jabberwocky 28-09-2008, 21:46 Attached by blu tac to the hump of Quasimodo. I think of all the good places, me.

Captain_Scarlet 29-09-2008, 05:55 Suggestions please?It'd fallen behind the desk, batterie are dead too. Found the lot when I put a phone extension up, yaay. slickwitch 29-09-2008, 10:02 Ours is often to be found in the "Cupboard of Doom" or "The Drawers of Doom" as named by Babyslick. Why is she so afraid of the T.V. Stand. Why? lolliew 30-09-2008, 09:38 found it yet crosser? Jabberwocky 30-09-2008, 10:04 He`ll never find it because I have it on good authority that its been superglued to Eddie Warings forehead. lolliew 01-10-2008, 07:11 i thought i saw it on look leeds earlier - maybe it has gone to persue a film career? |
