No dramas there. bunch of bent fuckers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dare 1,103 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I've watched people drop phones and stuff of their tits when I've been out raving and handed it back. Half thought when skint durring the week how handy it would of been if it I didn't.Thing is I've been just as messy as them at some points. Just the right thing to do and maybe getting soft in my old age but as Ive aged I've learnt and changed. If wasnt an address and money would I hand it into the police? Not a chance. Fact it's an old person though with an address is a whole different matter. Call me a soppy c**t but would make my day if I could have an old person think the world hasn't changed into a shithole and some still have morals and standards. Would bring me more of an enjoyment than spending the money. Oh and I'm not the type to try polish my halo. As said no address or f**k all then I wouldn't dream of handing it in.
