Suppose you find an item the has been lost recently how far would you go to try to find the owners?Personally i have gone as far as putting a ring on to the local radio this was never claimed,just wondering how far other members would go.

Reminded me of this story in the paper, a bag with 10 grand in all on it's lonesome, what a tempter!

A Dutch couple has been reunited with a rucksack containing £10,000 cash after it was found in a Lake District street and handed into police.

The bag was discovered in Burlington Street, Ulverston, on Tuesday and taken to the local police station after the unnamed resident checked its contents.

The couple, who had been on business in the UK, had "inadvertently left the bag on the street," police said.

They have since thanked the finder with a cash gift.

Sgt Rupert Johnston, of Cumbria Police, said: "The couple are very relived to have got their money bag, they thought it had gone forever.

"We are very lucky to be living and working in a town where honesty is so evident."

The couple originally mistakenly reported that the bag had been stolen in West Yorkshire.

If i knew the owner of something that i found i would give it back or if it was an elderly persons wallet,but other than that,no,i would keep it. I lost a very expensive solid gold bracelet that my wife bought me,no-one handed that in,mind you,i didnt tell the wife,she noticed a couple of weeks after i`d lost it,she went balistic. So finders keepers in my eyes too now.

Found a purse in Hereford a few years ago and handed it in to the police station as no address was evident. Contained cash, credit cards and various bits and bobs. What I did not know was there was a ring in one of the pockets that was of huge sentimental value to the owner who turned out to be called Sue as after an hour of being handed in she claimed it from the Police Station and was actually at my home before I got home and she Insisted I take a fifty pound reward for it. Felt proud for a week and as always the fifty pound came in very useful.
