Amusing story...

[MikeHoyer]

So, I was out at Mallory Park on Sunday, shooting for some Formula Ford website...

Get home, download the memory cards, and leave them on the desk.

Tuesday, I have a test to shoot at Snetterton, so Monday night I get all my gear packed, as I function better at night, than first thing in the morning!

I've only got two memory cards now that my microdrive has packed up, so I was a bit worried when I could only find one... much searching later, I decided to give up and look in the morning.

Next morning I had a brainwave, and found it outside, in the bottom of the wheelie bin! What had happened, I had been eating chips at my desk like a slob on Monday, thrown the chip papers into the bin, inadvertantly sending the CF card into it aswell... I then emptied the whole lot into the wheelie bin.

Luckily it was bank holiday, or it would've probably been emptied before I had a chance to retrieve it!

Anyone else got any similar funny stories?
