Bermuda Triangle

 Hi there

I am positive that my house is the South Pacific branch of The Bermuda Triangle.  Things go missing. A lot.

Pens, especially.  And combs.  I am forever buying new ones. 

The weird thing is that, unlike the original Triangle, my pens, combs, what-have-you, usually turn up again.  As if by magic, they appear at the back of a cupboard, in a bag I haven't used for years, under the computer keyboard, amongst my bedclothes....

When visitors come to my place, I always warn them -

 "please check thoroughly that you haven't left anything behind."

 " No, no, " they always say.  "I have everything."

 " Are you sure? "

 "Yep." 

 And my visitors go on their merry way.  Later, I discover their sun- glasses.  Or a jacket.  Or a ream of business papers.  My Miramar branch of the Bermuda Triangle  is snaffling up objects like nobody's business...
