A Most Unsavoury Find

Please note, this post is not for the squeamish or faint of heart……

It’s been quite a while since Nigel has “found” anything of note and in this case he rather wishes he hadn’t actually stumbled upon this particular item while on the school run with young Iris and Bertie ……

When finding a wallet it’s usually customary to take a closer look, just in case it contains anything of great import or that helps to identify the original owner.

Nigel thought it best to place it on a nearby wall, so should the said owner happen to be in search of it, it could easily be spotted.  Then…. he looked inside and immediately recoiled, something Nigel doesn’t do very often. ………

…… to find, two 5p pieces and two very dirty, joined up false teeth type things with screws fixed in the bottom. Eeeewwwwwweeeeeee!  He immediately felt very soiled and reached for his sanitiser, dousing Iris and Bertie in it too, even though they hadn’t actually touched anything.  It was the find of nightmares and in some ways a lesson learned about being a little too curious.

Iris, bless her, is very much into detectives and mysteries at the moment and so wrote up an inventory for Nigel’s perusal when they got back home, just in case anyone should post that they’d lost a wallet on the Evesham Noticeboard page of Facebook.  Nigel, bless him, thanked her politely and commended her civic spirt  ……. and then went off to have another scrub of a surgical operation type nature!   Yuk!

Oh, dear. I hope the owner isn't in need of the false teeth.

Well done Iris, in making the list.

Oh I say - sometimes there are times when not to be too observant is a good idea, but if you are not too observant, interesting things can pass you by. I'd still be observant, the world is an interesting place....mostly! JantheFan x
