      That's right - the spurious pings a good distance further north took their attention, although it wasn't clear (to me, though I may just have missed it) if they found those before or after Inmarsat narrowed their projected location for the final, incomplete handshake down to where it is now.

          Phone gone AWOL.

          Assume I left it at clientCo.

          Tried the tracker thing I put on it. Showed it at home. Clicked locate, then it showed it at clientCo. Good, I thought. Clicked locate again, and it shows it in Crowthorne (about 2 miles up the road from me). How odd.

          Will pop into clientCo on the way to parkrun and see if it can be found.

          Hopefully my data is better than MH370s

            Found it - it was down the side of the chair.

            (They did check down the back of the sofa for the plane, didn't they?)

              Somebody thought they might have seen it on the window ledge in the kitchen, so they spent several weeks and millions of dollars looking there. Now they're hoping to have a look down the back of the sofa in a couple of months.

                Sofa bought to replace the family room table which was simply used as a dumping ground.

                Thankfully the Argos furniture clearance is in town so the £500 sofa was £128. Plus £20 for man with van to collect and delivery
                merely at clientco for the entertainment

                    I thought exactly the same thing. And they have rather nice offices as well...

                      That is an excellent idea. Sadly if we get rid of the table we'll have to dine precariously on our knees all of the time, not good for our backs, digestion or the existing sofa.
