In London. Keen but lazy.

They are probably in the fridge, garage, wardrobe or car!
Shed, on the lawn, by the last plant/shrub/rose you dead headed, in your pocket.
Through the shredder with the heap of sticks you put down on top of them?
That makes an obvious loud clatter though
You'd have noticed that
In the sticks near Peterborough
In the compost bin? They reappear in six months nicely rusted
Found them hiding in full sight on the lid of the wheelie bin.
Unfortunately I had tried compost heap under rose bushes, down back of hall table but hadn't considered fridge.
My husband stands at door of shed and lobs things in. Never seen anything land on a hook though.
Glad you found them B3, I often have to search for mine, they are usually under a pile of cuttings!
Good plan!
I throw mine away in the bin with the cuttings. I sub-consciously put them in the bucket when I get distracted and then tip the bucket into the bin. I have lost so many that way. Either that or they are hiding with the odd socks that I can't find.
