Dropped my cheque on the pavement

[Phil]

Did a little job this morning and just when I got back home and pulled into the drive my phone rang and it was some random guy who had found my cheque blowing around on the pavement 2 doors down from where i was working, he googled my company name to get my number.

I was very grateful and gave him a reward, I hope it was enough. His good deed is done for today.

I didn't even know I'd lost it. :rockon2:

My God, a Yorkshire man that has given something away, I have rang the Guinness Book of records ! But they didn't believe me, side it was a Hoax call and they were going to report it to the police. :bobby:

A friend of mine found £680 of £20 notes rolled up and tied with an elastic band.
Would have been a nice find for some unscrupulous person. It did more good to give the rightful owner back his money. He had been out with his wife and 3 young kids at amusements and obviously dropped it after he had paid for something.

That's good...

I gave him £5 reward...and a handshake .

With overtime , mind you !

Of course.
I put my van key in the same pocket as my cheque and as I pulled my keys out the cheque came with it..

I would have given him at least a tenner, - probably a £20 especially if the cheque was for a hundred or two.
Little kids nowadays want at least a fiver each just to buy an ice cream.
The guy must wish he had torn your cheque up. If you give us his address, we could all contact him and apologise about you. :smile:

If I was on Facebook I think I'd be publicly shaming you phil. Not that I'd condone anyone doing that now...

 

[Phil]

It was a 45 quid job......He wasn't bothered really about a reward...

If that's so , did you ask for the Fiver back ? :disappointed:

Bit off topic but a cat wandered in to my house a few months ago and wouldn't leave, I took it to the local vets who said it was chipped, left my details with the vet and a few days later the owner rang and wanted to meet me to say thanks. Met with him and he gave me a £100!!!!! For a cat!!!

And now you patrol the streets in a van late at night rattling a box of kitikat and waving a tranquilliser gun?!
