I keep mine at home around town, but when we go away it goes with us (I won't say where!).
It's bloody good thing too, I went for a dive off a surf cat out in the ocean to untangle some rope from the deep sea rudders while we were in Margaret river, discovered shortly after climbing back aboard that my key's AND imobilsor remote where still in my pocket!! :-O
Good thing we had the spare!
I did a REALLY REALLY REALLY DUMB thing yesterday though!! I'd been playing around with my air horns, and had moved some of the truppets on the chasis rails. Anyway, I dropped my boy at school and had my 18month old girl in the car. I got home and had noticed the horns banging (they had come loose), so I turned the engine off and took Steph's seatbelt off (she absolutally LOVES running around inside the car, she goes bananans!! Grabs the steering wheel pretends she's driving etc, she's completely safe as she can't reach the handbrake on the dash and it's an auto that you cannot take out of park unless you put your foot on the brake at the same time). So I let her play around in the car, left the key's in the ignition, hoped out and quickly climbed under the car to inspect the noise.
Suddenly I here ... CHIRP!
I stopped dead in my tracks and thought, oh crap, the little buggers worked out how to push the imobilsor button...
then I thought: Oh bugger, she's locked herself in.
then I thought: I'll just grab the spare keys from inside and unlock the door in a second.
then I though: OMFG I havn't unlocked the house yet! THE HOUSE KEYS ARE IN THE CAR!
So I scooted out from under the car and ran around to the driver door where she was in the car laughing at me, having a ball! Then I notice that I hadn't completly latched the drives door. I pushed it and the lock popped up and I was IN!
PHHHHEEEWWWW!! Man I felt dumb! Imagine calling the missus and asking her to come home from work to that I could get her daughter out of the car! :-| I don't think she would have been impressed!
