Brazen it out...
If she asks, just say - I lost it - what of it?
Then tell her to stop whining and put the kettle on.
They flit about from one thought to another, in ten minutes it'll be something else they want to worry about.

You're right of course. It would be like that cat Jinx in Meet the Parents.Originally posted by expat View Post
It would be deceitful. One lie always leads to another, so that by the time you are found out, you have sweated buckets over it and all you've got is a bigger pack of lies to stand trial for. Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practise to deceive.

Until he finds out that he lost it at the weekend, his Mrs has found it and is waiting for him to own up...Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostI know it must sound a bit tacky, and maybe slightly deceitful, but can't you just buy another one that looks the same, until the original turns up?
