Go out there and find that phone. I was outside for several minutes this morning and it isn't that bad. Nicer in here by the fire, but you will be fine I am sure.

We would like to pay for your time and petrol . We would be happy to pay $50. We are bearing in mind that we may still need to replace the phone. Many thanks. Call for our address. 3296994

I wish i could say i found it but as i was hunting in the area we thought the phone might be the owner came out and said dont worry about it i have my phone back... Her kids had seen me out there hunting,she was going to post tonight that it was found so i wouldnt waist gas going out but i went right from work..... In the end the phone wasnt where we thought..it was 2 Km's up the road..lol...i would have been hunting for a long long time if it hadnt been returned to her... So although i didnt find it the result was pleasing..the phone and owner reunited..lol. Cheers Chris

My neighbour asked me to look for lost keys in her garden...found later sticking in her back door lock...ummm!
