Caryl Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I walked into town today, as usual, and realised at my destination that my wallet had fallen out of the backpack! PANIC!!! I started walking back the way I came looking everywhere (a 4km journey). Texted Grant to see if he was still home. Luckily he was just driving down the same road so started looking too. I then got 2 phone calls, both from guys called Mike! Mike 1 was a cop who said someone had found my wallet and had left it at Meaters (a butcher shop halfway up the road I had walked) then Mike 2, who was the owner of Meaters, to say he had it in the office. A lovely lady had picked it up outside and left it there to be collected. Money and cards all intact. I don't usually have cash in my wallet but had my birthday money in there this time! The thought of having to cancel cards etc was also daunting so I am very relieved it was found by an honest person I am off to buy her flowers and choccies as a thank you, as she left her name and phone number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stillnzcookie Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Good for you buying something and thanking her properly - I know it's just simple courtesy, but so many people wouldn't even think of it these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted February 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Small town life isn't always great Jennifer as some time ago, in this same small town, my bag was stolen (with wallet inside) so this makes up for it :bounce: She really appreciated her thank you gift 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
