CJ Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Following on from my personal rant - here's another personal snippet: I went to do a bit of shopping tonight and couldn't find my wallet. I looked around in all the usual places but it was still nowhere to be found. I then thought I must have left it in the car but looked and still no joy. I then started to wrack my brains trying to remember the last time I had it and realised I had brought it in yesterday on top of a load of letters etc that were due to be thrown out. So, out to the bin I go and luckily the last thing I put in there was the carrier bag with the old letters and envelopes. I open it all up and there it was! Not much money in it but my debit card, drivers licence and residency permit. Phew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian R Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thank god you found it Col if you lost the residency permit the chances are they would send you back and we wouldn't want that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thank god you found it Col if you lost the residency permit the chances are they would send you back and we wouldn't want that Very true old chap. And the chances of me getting residency again would be slim as they now know what I am like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Lucky man, good thinking - I've lost my wallet so I've been on the phone to various places canceling things, luckily I'd ordered a replacement visa card in the week as mine was cracked, which turned up today so I've still been able to buy things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprash Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Seeing as Colin is sharing his good luck, I will share mine with you as well.... I had a letter arrive the other day, no name on it, just my address, so I opened it up to find a cheque that has been written out for £110, signed but the payee left blank The name on the check I have no idea who they are either..... Who bets it will cash.....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
