In 1962, I spotted a five-pound note in the street gutter at our school crossing in London. I handed it to the 'lollipop man' and gave him my name and address. I was told it would be mine if no one claimed it within three months. Imagine my delight when I collected the money at the local police station. For a ten-year-old boy, that was worth its weight in gold. Five pounds then is worth about 7,000 baht now.

A similar thing happened to me when I was 9 or 10.
We were having a beach holiday with mum and dad on Philip island in Victoria.
The main beach was almost deserted and we were walking to a shaded area when I kicked up a gold and diamond mans ring from the sand.
We took it to the cop shop and handed it in and were told, if no one claims it in 3 months it is yours.
My dad wore that until the day he died, and now, my tunnel c*nted sister has claimed it.-----------Ah, family.
