I've found our TV remote in various places around (and outside*) the flat.
Certain people just don't switch contexts easily and/or don't return to the original context easily.
I find it hugely frustrating as I always (except when hammered) know where all of my important things are (wallet, keys, phone, sunglasses, etc) because I always (except when hammered) put them down in the same place (or one of a very limited number of places).
Meanwhile I find other residents purses/wallets, zip cards, jewellery, etc all round the flat in a surprising number of unique places, often 5 or 10 minutes after we were supposed to leave for something.
TV remote goes on one of the nestle tables in front of the sofa. Except when it doesn't.
* I once found the TV remote in the hallway we share with the flat upstairs. I think the postman rang with a parcel that needed signing for and so a certain person carried the remote to the front door, put it down to sign for the parcel, and then carried the parcel in forgetting about the TV remote.
