I think I have Borrowers. Two side plates and a knife and fork have gone missing.

I live alone. I've checked everywhere, including the washing machine. They're gone.

What other answer is possible?

What do the Borrowers take from your homes?

My potato peeler. I dropped it a few months ago and it's disappeared off the face of the earth! Pretty much dismantled my kitchen looking for it! Lol

I can't get up into my loft - the ladder and I are both too short.

They're fast aren't they? I am sure my side plates were on the drainer waiting to be put away. Gone.

Get pest control in - sort the theiving scum out!

I find things go missing when I put them somewhere safe.

Have you checked the microwave or plate warmer bit of the cooker? Down the side of the sofa?

Under the bed?

That's a poor excuse. You wouldn't hear a borrower saying that as he scaled up your cupboard to the cutlery drawer.

I don't have a sofa but I have checked all of the other places mentioned. I've checked the bookcase, the shower, in the bed, the spare bedroom, the dishwasher (that I haven't used for 3 years) and the rubbish bin.

Can they sort out the blown light bulbs if I leave a note?

It could be a Poltergoost that likes collecting various ad-hoc types of cutlery and crockery, as that's what I'd spend eternity doing.

It is annoying. When you find things it all seems so obvious.

Also a certainty that things are found in the last place you thought of looking.

That's because once you've found it you stop looking

My sister suggested I check the dishwasher and once I started I felt I had to look everywhere. I checked the fridge, the freezer, the microwave and the cutlery drawer too.
