Thank you
I just wanted to say thank you to the kind, honest person who found my handbag, when I very absent-mindedly, left it on the bus from Accy to Blackburn yesterday morning on my way to work (no excuse, I had a very senior moment), this person whoever it was handed it to the driver and as a result I got my bag returned intact, never been so relieved - it wasn't so much the money etc I was worried about but personal stuff that could not have been replaced.
I realise the person may not read this board but maybe if someone knows who it was they would pass on my gratitude to them, their actions restored some of my faith in people.

Glad you got you bag back. It does restore your faith in human nature.
I hope the person who gave it in to the driver reads this.

Re: Thank you
so pleased you got your bag back Diane, it's a nightmare when you think you have lost really special personal items.
Do you think the person who left their new table mats in their trolley at morrisons in harwood yesterday might feel the same after I handed them back into customer services?? ha ha

Re: Thank you
No such thing as senior moments - it's just your brain taking a rest,,,,,,,,,,,,perfectly normal, happens to me all the time!!
Hope you're always as lucky again when it happens outside the home...
