Man gets his wallet full of cash back...almost SEVEN YEARS after he left it in a taxi

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

A dad says he has been left stunned after a wallet full of cash he lost was returned to him.....almost seven years later! Gig-goer Andy Evans, 45, from Wythenshawe, left the wallet, containing his driving licence bank cards, and £134 in cash in a taxi as he travelled back from watching The Courteeners at Heaton Park in June 2015.

Dad-of-two Andy flagged the black mini-bus style taxi down outside the park in north Manchester and no idea which firm it belonged to, so he had no way of contacting the driver.

He assumed it was gone forever when he realised it wasn't in his jeans pocket shortly after stepping out of the cab. So he was left gobsmacked when this weekend a package sent recorded delivery arrived for him containing the wallet - exactly as he had left it all those years ago.

However, they are now so old some of the notes anc coins are no longer in circulation. The wallet contained two old-style twenty-pound notes which can still be used but Andy will have to take the old paper five and ten pound notes, and old pound coins, to the bank to be exchanged.
