I'm always amazed that people lose shoes in pub car parks. Surely you'd notice that one has fallen off, no matter how drunk you get...

Found a jerry/gerry can of petrol/Diesel, dunno what, but the pigs took it off me 100 yards from the house, after I'd dragged the fooking thing about 3 mile

My mum was sweeping the path outside our house a few autumns ago and there was an envelope in the leaves. £50 note inside. The envelope was blank so we couldnt return it to anyone..

I always manage to find the shopping trolley which some wally has left their £1 coin in...I think I must have had about a tenner this summer

Were you rolling in the grass or just merely walking through it?

That'll teach you. Next time buy second-hand trainers.

Or should that be "second-foot trainers"?

I found £15 in Sansburys last week and handed it to customer services thinking it could be some old ladys. When I got outside I realised it was my money that had fallen out my pocket. I have to wait 6 weeks to claim it as I don't want to go in and tell them what I did.

I once found 2 £50 pound notes when I was about 8, that was a LOT of money back then.

My dad took it off me and said he would look after it for me, never did see it again

riding home on Friday I found a two pound coin. I actually rode over it and heard the noise it made.

Paid for the train fare in the morning, so a free trip in that day (ish)

Found a few things, couple of mobile phones but always look through the phone book and find out who it belongs to and hand it in, dont know why I do though considering nobody hands in anything I lose

I went through a phase of finding stuff, it was excellent. I found a sapphire and diamond gold ring on a beach in Greece, a camera, about £100 in twenties stuck to the slop on the floor of a club, a fiver on the floor of a petrol station, a chequebook AND card, and a purse I managed to find the owner of the purse and chequebook so gave them back and I had the photos on the camera developed at the resort and looked around to try and find it's owner but failed. I gave the ring to my nan and spent the cash

Also I once found love but that's another story

I know what you mean, a mate of mine used to work in a night club, and sometimes we'd wait for him as the club was shutting down, he once walked past us with a pair of trousers that were left of the floor at the end of the night

I mean come on ive been plastered loads of times, but never have i come home with no keck's on
