The “finder”? Ha!

I’ve lost my wallet on countless occassions. Each time, the finder has helped themselves to the reward, or so I assume.

Lost mine twice with the same result,I was very grateful indeed to get it back but if maybe for the form of the thing theyd left a fiver in it I could have given them a fiver reward,still it cuts out the middle man I spose.
