No not in this case.

It is still warm just raining a lot so no coat needed.

The umbrella was lying on the sofa where I had been sitting watching tele just 8 hours before - UK is Kiev minus 2 hours so I am sometimes up late watching UK programmes.

I certainly wasn't sitting on it while watching TV Smile

I walked out of the bedroom this morning and there was the umbrella on the sofa, no coat anywhere near I had also just got out of bed so was nowhere near ready to leave the flat.

I can only put it down to losing memory for a while before going to bed but I had not drunk anything and good grass dealers are impossible to find in Kiev so I had certainly not smoked anything.

Maybe I should change my brand of green tea.

Perhaps I should start walking around with 2 umbrellas from now on just in case the original one disappears while I am using it - that way I won't get a soaking.

Very wierd.

Do you have a landlord?
Maybe he borrowed it?

When I went to bed last night I noticed that there were two pillows where I only have one. Nobody else uses this bed and I always straighten the bedding when I get up ready for night time. Yet there it was, my extra pillow. Hmm.

This sort of stuff happens to me a lot and I put it down to going senile as I don't "feel' that my place has any other folk living here apart from my wife and the cats.

I like a chick that straightens a bed, dunno why I find it erotic.

Cycling to work before a night shift, completely cloud free night apart from one striking skull shaped cloud sitting over the city I was cycling to. It was low down in the sky and I actually stopped cycling just to look at it.

This morning when I walked into the lounge my original "lost" umbrella was lying in the middle of my sofa.

I was sitting on the sofa last night watching tele so I would have certainly noticed it there if it had been in place the previous evening.

My familly is currently away visiting relatives elsewhere in the country so I am living all alone at the moment.

I now have 2 umbrellas but I am somewhat bewildered as to where my original umbrella went for 24 hours.


I've been reading "Glitch in the Matrix" over on Reddit as well as the forums over here at ForteanTimes, and I can tell you that disappearing/reappearing objects seem to be common. Whether the objects are disappearing more than they have been in the past or whether our new abilities to communicate with each other all over the world are revealing a common phenomenon, I don't know.

There seem to be a lot of duplicating objects, also.

I then heard her walk up the stairs, so presumed she was going to the bathroom or whatever.


I've read many reports like this one, and am wondering whether something is attempting to imitate humans. The major trait they seem to share is that they never speak nor smile.

Of course, it could be imagination, too. Wink


'Something'?
Aliens, maybe?


Nah, not aliens. I get the feeling that if "something" is trying to imitate humans, that "something" is native to this planet, too

In the past week, a set of mugs and (more upsettingly) my wedding & engagement rings have all disappeared. We've turned the house inside out, but nothing. I'm hoping that the "Glitch" is repaired soon Confused . I shall, of course, report back as soon as they reappear in a place I KNOW I've already looked Laughing

My friend lost a ring of hers recently; after searching the whole house at least twice, it turned up, ten days later, inside a water bottle in the recycling bin Shocked

following a midnight cinema show in hamilton ontario on my way out at about 2 ayem i realised a sterling silver ring had gone ... mentally backtracking i reasoned the only place it couldve wound up was in one of the lobby bins on my way out ( i always bus my own table ) ... i managed to get security to let me in and located the bin ... and i then had to drag the whole sack of coke and popcorn debris back to my vehicle ... found it the next morning right at the bottom half submerged in coke ... it still has a half discoloured effect from the coke !

moral is if youre putting your rubbish out or recycling anything always take your rings off !

True; in my friend's case, however, she didn't lose it doing the bins, or the recycling, she took if off while kneading bread!
