  • My mum handed money in when I was a kid and in those days it used to be 12 months found property sat with them and the finder had something like 3 months to them come and claim it. She went back to see if it had been claimed (it was something hefty like £200 back in the mid-1970's) and it apparently had been. She was surprised and asked when, "Last week." "Oh, do you know who claimed it?" "Yeah, it was errr.. A student." After fifty eight weeks? Yeah right. She was really naive and came home all pleased that some poor student had got their money back after so long.

    So these days, I'll think twice about lining Plod's pocket for him whilst trying to do my civic duty. If I ever find money, I think I'll donate it to charity. At least muggers are honest in their dishonesty.
