My mum told me my sibling's passport was not in the lock box when I got mine out a few weeks ago. She last used it for a work thing. She's gone through her place and ours and nothing. Asked her to check work, also nothing.

The suspense is killing me. Where is this passport?

I will check the lock box myself tomorrow and see if it's just camouflaged in there.

Is that miss marple or am I just making shit up lol

That is modern day Columbo.

It's hard to say who is better because they both solved everything.

I don't normally watch brit crime drama but she was really good.

edit: pet

It is a weirdly charming show. In a horrible way.

Shetland is also good. Based on a series of books by the same author who created Vera - Ann Cleeves - so it might appeal?

I've seen that actress play Mrs Bennet in Pride and Prejudice and got...really thrown

Good idea to check the lock box. Usually stuff like that is exactly where it's supposed to be but I only realise I have just missed it after I pull apart my entire life looking for it ..

..on that note can you check in there for my fav silver necklace? That's what I am currently tearing the place apart looking for 🤣
