Well it's not even 8am and on the way to work I have lost my mobile phone (XDA Exec with big SD card, and fancy alu/leather case) my key's (house/lotus/clio/parentshouse) and wallet.
Update:
After much trampling the streets I have found my wallet and someone has found my phone so the 2 things I wasn't fussed about (phone insured, wallet empty) but the thing I really wanted to find nowhere to be seen .

In my rush to get out this morning I put my wallet/phone/keys in my wee bag under the bike seat and I forgot to zip it up.
DOH!

Anyone know how easy it is to get new car keys & Cobra alarm stick for an S1 when you don't have either ? (it was my only set )
DOH x 2 !

The keys are just astra keys. The alram dongle might need a "Jolly programmer" IIRC.
Do you have the immobilizer stick thing and the alrm override key? If you do you can still drive about, otherwise you might need a cobra agent.

I lost the blipper/key for my Corsa a couple of weeks ago. Got a couple of identical Blippers of ebay so will need to get them programmed. Need to get keys cut as well. Seemingly quite expensive from Vauxhall. During my search for keys/programming I cam accross the following:

Is your alarm fob the 2 button type like on the S2? If so I may be able to do you a great deal on a spare if you are interested for when it happens again
(I have three having lost one, bought a replacement on Ebay and then found the lost one).
