How To Find Lost Items

 Take measures to prevent repeated loss.

Note where you lost your spectacles last time. My list is

LOST & FOUND LOCATIONS

In the car - in the glove box. Between the seats. Under the seats. Under a blanket. 

In the Bedroom - dropped on the floor between the bed and the  bedside table (which Americans call the night stand).

The Bathroom

The windowsill

The side of the bath

On top of towels o the towel rail.

On the toilet lid - this is the best place.

2 They are behind the cushion behid your back.

3 On the floor under the chair or desk.

4 Dropped inside your shoes.

Inside the straw hat or baseeball cat.

1 How To Locate Spectacles

Keep spectacles in a glasses case. Mark the case with a coloured ribbon. Attach the ribbon to a bedside light. Attach the ribbon to a desk lamp.
