My first thought before reading the rest of your post was whether or not given you last used the tools in kent, had you had @Leesparkykent round doing somework? would explain the missing screwdrivers and his recent posts!
 
Ain't it funny, how we mark our tools with bits of insulating tape, just so if someone else picks up out tools and says it theirs. A practice dating back. My claw hammer is marked with a bit green/yellow and a bit of white tape. Steps have got a bit of black tape, although they have my initials under one of the treads, just in case.

i heat up a sewing needle and etch my name into everything, tape can just be removed by the tool thief

Most people cut a nick in to their tools I did a triangle and funnily they never went missing as the other workers must of thought I was in the Masonic Lodge.......

Me Grandfather was in the Lodge, remember seeing his little case with bits & bobs in it. Had a small silver plated trowel, and I remember thinking, Granddads not a builder?
