Still some good people out there

Just had some random person ring the buzzer. Returning my flat mates wallet. Not only is everything there it even still has £50 notes in it :eek:

.

Feel a bit bad not giving him some money or anything. Didn't have any on me and no idea he had £50 in the wallet.

Not only all that but he drove from Thornbury to the centre of bristol...

So a big thumbs up and a thank you..

Wow, that almost unheard of in this day and age

JodieO · 19 Jan 2008 at 19:42

Glad some people are honest

Marky · 19 Jan 2008 at 19:42

Wow that was nice of him... I know quite a few that'd pick it up and spend

I got £1 too much change from my dinner the other week.

I took the £1 back: :angel:

My landlady dropped her handbag once, next day someone turns up on the doorstep having looked in the bag and got her address from her cheque book, she apologised for not bringing it back sooner.

I have to say id do the same, I even found a key once on the ground and took it to the police station because I knew it must belong to someone.

it probably had £150 in it when he found it.

Well done to that man. I would have returned it.

iBot · 19 Jan 2008 at 20:00

Ah right, should have given him a fiver then just for his transportation costs

stevenazari1 · 19 Jan 2008 at 20:02

I would have put it in a co-op bag and kept the wallet.

Yeh but I didn't realise there was any money in it. Flatmate wasn't in.

Someone found my phone once, I rang it as soon as I realised, and they arranged to meet me to hand it over.

Good to hear.

I can't say for certain that I'd do the same because it's all too easy to say that..
