Anyway, dropped the Octy off for some work on the brakes, mechanic says, is the locking wheel nut adapter in the boot, yes I said, we go in the boot to make sure, it's not in its usual place, we take everything out of the spare wheel well, check under all the tools, not there, we check in the two little storage compartments each side (estate), not there, must be in the glove compartment,  not there, centre console,  not there, little compartment by the steering wheel,  not there, what am I going to do, little bit of sweat breaking out on my forehead, just driven hour and a half. AND THEN IT CAME TO ME, I DONT HAVE LOCKNUTS ON THIS CAR. Good job the mechanic saw the funny side, he did a brilliant job. 

Welcome to the seniors club. 🤣🤣🤣

It's better than forgetting where the locking wheel nut is for your Fabia, emptying the car out across the driveway, to find it in the 'emergency' bag beside a spare coil pack and wheel nut cover puller that you had set aside earlier thinking the locking nut adapter isn't in said bag.

The mechanic at the garage I use did the same with my mk6 GTi. Without checking the wheelnuts he searched for the locking wheel nut and rang me when he couldn't find it. That's when I realised I probably should have told them I removed them!
