Emma Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I have a conundrum, it's been bothering me for a few hours now and I'm not entirely sure what's going on. The other week we bought a new BBQ and it came with a cover. It's currently out in the garden still and I put the cover on it a couple of days ago and thought no more about it. Today I've noticed it's not on there, so OK, I'm thinking, it's blown off on to the floor. Off goes inspector Emma searching the garden and it's nowhere to be found?!! So I hang my head out of my son's bedroom window and start eyeing up the neighbours garden's, which caused a few puzzled looks from said neighbours! It's not there either! As a last resort I interviewed Paul about it's current whereabouts when he returned from work and he does not know where it has gone either and has done a further search for it as apparantly mine wasn't thorough enough. So if you see a big black sack floating around you know what it is and where it has come from. Could you please tell it to hurry up and come home as it's owners are missing it's presence and fearful that without it the BBQ will go rusty! M I S S I N G HAVE YOU SEEN THIS BBQ COVER? IT WAS LAST SEEN A FEW DAYS AGO AND ANSWERS TO NOTHING AT ALL SO CALL IT WHAT YOU LIKE. IF SEEN PLEASE INFORM EMMA AS SHE WILL BE EXTREMELY GREATFUL! PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT THE ACTUAL BBQ COVER BUT ONE THAT IS A LITTLE BIT SIMILAR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emma Posted May 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 Lmao, not even ice could devour an entire BBQ cover without leaving a trace, lol. If he could though, I'd imagine it would be a bit like a magician pulling hankies out of his sleeve when it came to pop time, lol.

Carly Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 Did a breeze catch it and sail it off down the road? That happened to our plastic greenhouse last year, found it 2 doors up lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 As a grammar Nazi, Emma, I find it fascinating that you can perfectly spell "conundrum" but not "grateful" Seriously though can't you patch up some unused fabrics and make a new cover? I wouldn't bother looking for it at all LOL it might be blown away to somebody's lawn and they thought "hey that makes a good cover for my midget fridge" or something like that.

Lol, the hard words are easy to spell, it's the easy ones that I find hard, which makes no sense I know! I could go out and buy something to make a new one but haven't got anything to hand unfortunately. I'm beginning to suspect someone liked it so much that they decided to take it for themselves! Will be watching my neighbours like a hawk from now on, lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed #5 Posted May 22, 2014 Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 We've been having some wind today and may even get some rain out of it .... I did see something that looked like your cover go sailing past but by the time I got out to see if that was it, it was well on it's way to Mexico. Oooooppss, sorry.

Emma Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 I have an update to this. This morning I woke up to find the rogue BBQ cover laying in the middle of the garden! I guess it had gotten tired of globe trotting and has decided it was time to come home, lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Do you have a tree in your garden ? Could strong winds have wafted it up into the branches where it lay giggling at your frantic antics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
