You check out at 0800, but didn't come back until 1800?
It took you/wife 10 hours to realize it was gone? Or at least didn't have the 2-3 minutes to call the hotel as soon as you realize it was missing...?

I'm not sure what kind of handbag it was...or how many different handbag(s) your wife was carrying at that time. But given it consist of her wallet and credit card inside....it really took you guys that long to realize it was left in the hotel room?
