Have you ever found that little piece of plastic that you haven't got a clue what it's from?

I found that little piece of plastic last night! After a second of wondering what it was from, I popped it in the bin.

Now, I have just picked up my laptop and the battery fell off
I attempted to lock it back in, but the lock fell out
Suddenly, I've just realised where that little piece of plastic is from *sigh*

Won't my laptop look lovely with it's battery held in with some duct tape?!!

Under the cats, mostly.
ehehehehehe I usually find little bits of plastic that Tosca has pulled off something. Normally pen lids, but I can never find the pens that go with them.......

Haha Max did that the other day. I had bought a new treat ball for Chester that makes a laughing sound when it's rolled around.

There are two `laugh-makers' in it, and one of them kept falling out, so I put it on the mantlepiece. Max and I did a two-day spring clean last weekend and I couldn't find it afterwards. I said to him, `Did you throw out a little bit of plastic that was sitting on the mantlepiece?' He said he thought it looked like an old bottle-top, when I described it to him he was like, `Yup, that was it!' D`oh!!

So looks like Chester's ball is only laughing half-heartedly...

Yes that dog is so mellow the first time he rolled it over it gave him the fright of his life and he ran off - sweet thing, he's such a wuss and we love him!

So the ball belongs to Ruby now. Nothing frightens that lunatic (except for wind) and she rolls it around ceaselessly now - kinda makes me really glad I bought it...lol

It's amazing how these little bits of plastic make all the difference!


Clare, I've got a remote like that too - I can never find the back, so I just hold onto the batteries!

You could start a new laptop fashion trend

I find little packets of screws that must have come with something I bought. So do I keep them or toss? I have some in a small ziploc bag which means I put them there but what are they for???

Ah! Screws! I have thrown away more screws! When I clean out my toolbelt (rarely
) it's just so much easier to just toss the stuff rather than try to sort it all out. Drywall screws in 3 different lengths, old bent nails I've pulled, wirenuts in 3 sizes
... I just buy new. Or use duct tape
...
