The Clothes They Stood Up in
Alan Bennett Audio Book

People often take their possessions for granted, unconsciously becoming encumbered with a number of seemingly innocuous things that they slowly come to depend upon as part of their everyday routines. So when the elderly couple, Mr and Mrs Ransome, return home one day to find that every item in their home has mysteriously disappeared, even the toilet paper, the implications the startling occurrence has on their lives is almost as substantial as the heated argument that ensues as to whether they were robbed - as Mrs Ransome believes, or in the eyes of Mr Ransome, burgled! (There is, apparently, a difference…)
