    I lost my beloved nokia 3410 in a leisure centre bathroom when I was 13 :(

    Lost my first and dearly beloved iPhone 3GS on the bumper cars at the carnival, I realised it was gone about 30 seconds after I got off. Went back in and looked for it, the staff looked in all the cars and we rang it too to no avail, someone had picked it up in those 30 seconds and fecked off with it. Meteor gave me a free android phone as an upgrade but after a week I couldn't hack it any longer and bought my second iPhone 3GS which is still going strong over a year and four screens later!

    I have never lost a phone.

    My brother has lost four though, and he's lost his wallet and right now he is stranded in London 'cause he lost his passport over there.

    Yeah, never lost a phone. Misplaced it once or twice for a few hours.
    Friend went through 7 phones in a year, a joke really at that point.

    I'll probably jinx myself by saying it but I've never lost one (forever). I 'misplaced' one once but I got it back a few hours later cos the fella who found it rang my mam.

    He can get home with aer lingus 'cos they accept forms of id other than a passport as far as I know!!

    An extraordinary amount of people seem to drop their phones while standing over the toilet.

    Once on a night out in Galway. I think i got pick pocketed.
    Wasn't that bothered about the phone but i lost a load of family photoes and videos. Was absolutely gutted about that :(

    2, both on nights out.

    If it is a good phone it's gonna be lost within 6 weeks or more likely broken since it's definitely more sensitive than the one that lasted 10 years.

    Lost 1, and had 1 stolen. Stolen phone was during a stag party in Barcelona. Whoever got it, assuming they unlocked it, ended up with some interesting photos from the strip club the night before, and a few racy pics of my missus too.

    When said girl gets it off with a stranger after a night out... the phone often disappears. A combination of the exhilirating experience and the drink/drugs. She leaves the strange gaff in a daze the next morning WITHOUT her phone.
    Hahaha! can't wait to share this with my friend tomorrow who loses a phone every second weekend. And I do believe you've solved the mystery:D
