so up they went for sale yesterday and it didn't take long and overnight closed at $3,000 in bird sales and i pulled the ad. that's enough to paint the car and buy a couple of items for the new bike. checked the bank a/c and half the cash is in today and the balance on pickup
so I went out to the airport to get some freight costs to Victoria and qld. they don't mind paying for birds but will argue if they think they are being overcharged for freight by $10 or $15
at the counter with the wife. no-ne there so I told her to ring the number for attendance as I don't or very rarely use a mobile

guy comes out weighs the boxes and the wife said to me don't forget your wallet
on the counter blocked from view from the other side -almost same wallet as mine. picked it up then felt my pocket...mine was there. so opened the wallet up and it was loaded with assorted credit cards and such including a drivers license plus $270 in cash
anyway its never good to lose a wallet anytime and worse still to get it knocked off - so I gave it all back to the guy behind the counter - yes including the $270

I can earn that or more an hour when I work anyway but if I had opened it up and there was say $5000 in it - it may have been different ending
but thankfully I was $4730 off that target and all ended good

who knows the guy behind the counter might have pocketed the $270 himself but on the day I didn't need the money that bad
