Default Grrrrr!!!! Mislaid my keys again....
I hate it when you cant find your keys especially when your in a hurry in the morning.... Years ago I saw someone with a key ring where if you yelled out or clapped your hands the thing would start an electonic melody, thus making them easy to find. Anyone know if you can get something like this?

What are the chances that you will lose your Keys, when the batteries in the keyring are flat?

I hate those f&$&@n things. Had one on my keys as a P-plater and annoyed the schisse out of me at night: any sound would trigger the bastard. One night it got to me and being half asleep, when it went off, I just grabbed it and launched it into the wall. Problem solved. Got up in the morning and found that not only had I killed the beeper, the alarm remote was in several pieces as well.

Hehehe.
I just found my keys wedged in the underframe of my lounge where I had slouched and slumped in the other night, they had slid out of my pocket.

I will now BIDE my time, and look for a reputable electronic keyring locally, at a shop, because I FEAR POSTIGE is unreliable.

Great idea but as mentioned above, they go off when they shouldn't.
