After walking the dog in the Waitakere Ranges I got back to the car and noticed an email had arrived in my blog inbox:
Hi Robin
You dropped your wee black bag on Exhibition Drive so we brought it home – has your license, bank card and some cash.
Give us a call ###-####, we’re on ### Scenic Drive.
I usually put that waterproof bag in a zipped jacket pocket so I don’t lose it. Obviously didn’t do that today!
I hadn’t even missed it until I got back to the car and pulled the car keys out of the same zipped pocket, realising there was no bag in there.
It was so awesome they’d picked it up and found me via the web as there were no direct contact details on anything in the bag.
It saved me retracing 6km of track to trying to find a black bag in the evening gloom, or the hassle of replacing cards and license.
A nice end to the weekend!
