My elderly Mother is just like that, she tidies things away and then
never knows where she put them. I dread doing jobs at her place that
take more than one day as she always makes the place look nice
inbetween and I spend a lot of the second day just trying to find
things that the 5 foot 2, and getting smaller all the time, English
fairy has squirelled away.

Cheers,
Steve
