Tues 8th Sept: I feel like Amelie



...........whilst cycling along Regents Canal getting honked at by Coots...........I overheard a little girl crying because she had lost her pencil case..................a few bridges later I saw a jazzy looking bit of colour on the verge and Magpied in ...........yep it must be said lost wallet............so I turned 360 and peddled back to intercept the casualty.............but to no avail the mother and daughter had left the toe path.............I was left with this bundle of joy.............

I remember the heartache of losing your favourite possessions as a kid so I set about putting up a couple of LOST posters on the Canal ...........this led to some confusion with 2 days of harassment by a sex pest leaving texts and voice mails of "how much do you take"..........BUT then on Saturday the mum rang me! BRILLIANT! On Thurs we are going to meet so I can reunite the water-toy mobile phone to it rightful owner! BLESS!

I lost my seal soft toy when i was 6...........working on my nan's stall at the WI jumble sale............"Sealy" got sold by accident.........I was mortified............but a few years later when I went to a girl's house to play = there he was..........minus nose and whiskers but undeniably soft and seal-like.......i'll never forget how happy that made me so that's the moral of the story
