View Full Version : Brown bag/trousers....
So I have a brown leather man-bag I take to work on my scooter (they're both cool so shut it), there's a little parcel shelf fold-down thingy on the back that I put my bag on, wrapping the strap around several times before tying it in a knot.
Unfortunately when I arrived at work this morning I discovered my knot tying was less that satisfactory and the bag had disapearred! Now, apart from being quite attached to this bag, it also had: wallet, house keys, ipod, Shure headphones, usb key, work Blackberry and just to top it off, some insurance documents with my address printed all over them. Cue me bricking it and speeding off desperately back tracking my route hoping it would still be somewhere in the road, whilst occasionally stopping to call the Blackberry (my personal phone was safely in my pocket). I got back to my flat fearing the worst and called my work phone one last time and....
....Someone answered! Some guy had picked it up on his way home from the job centre and waited for the phone to ring. He gave me his address and was a really nice bloke, he explained he was out of work after losing his job when he got breathalised 'the morning after'. I was so happy I got him to take me to the nearest cash machine and gave him £50, he said someone had done the same for him once so wanted to help out. Karma eh?

The girlfriend can't wait to go for a ride on it when she's down!
Restores your faith in mankind a bit. In those types of situations you fully expect to never see your stuff again.

How awesome!
What a top man!
Made me smiley this morning :D
Ok so this one is even weirder! On Friday evening I was totally exhausted and walking from work to where I park my scooter. Its about 5 minutes walk away as all the bays in the City are always full. Anyway, I suddenly realised that I couldn't find my keys so I rushed back to work to retrace my steps but couldn't find them anywhere! I decided to go home and pick up my spare keys and come straight back in again, sprinting from the station to my flat and back again to get the next train cause its faster than the tube. I didn't want to leave my scooter in town for any length of time because I know the city is basically a ghost town at the weekend so someone could steal it without anyone seeing. Fast forward to this morning and I must have parked in exactly the same place as low and behold, my keys are sitting on a ledge right where I left them on Friday!
One morning I left Uni accommodation to go to the usual collection of lectures/classes/whatever, and at some point realised I didn't have my keys with me. Went back to find them hanging out the lock where I'd left them. :shocked:

Lom's done that no end of times. Come back to the house late at night and there's the keys dangling there!

Yeah that's why! You would have been in the middle of dinner by the time I'd done all that so I went home :(
I once came down the stairs in the morning before work and thought it was a bit cold. The front door was wide open... and in December too! Quickly woke my housemate and asked if he knew what was going on. He'd been out the night before to get his wallet from the car and left it open. His bedroom door was right next to the front door too. What a wally.
What's almost as annoying is that the milkman rocked up, left our daily pint, and didn't think anything of it.
