Stolen passport ?

Passport paranoia... Lisa just asked; "Where's your passport?". I told her it was in my camera bag and she replied; "Well as long as you know where it is then that's alright?" I guess she's adopting her maternal role and preparing for our trips this summer or just expressing a little concern since my renewed passport never arrived in May and I had to travel down to the British Consulate in Dusseldorf to purchase a one journey only passport to get back to Manchester. Finally Liverpool Passport Agency couriered a new one to me while I was staying at Maureen's but the other never did surface... I reckon it must have been nicked... Renewed Passports just don't go missing in transit do they?
