cash point shock!!
lav.loo - 2013-08-20 12:19
Ok today I went to the local cashpoint at the tsb bank to draw out a little cash and pay some bills.
Anyway as I walked up to use it a man infront of me who had just used it said there's no cash in it and began walking off.
As I was about to put my card in the machine it spat out a load of notes and I was in shock and paused for a brief moment and saw visions of boxes I could buy with it lol
I quickly got my head together and shouted the man back who was elderly and had crossed the road by this point.
He came over to me and I explained what had just happened and he looked shocked and had the look of disbelief that someone could be so honest.
There must have been 2 or 3 hundred quid sticking out of the machine and if I am honest I could really do with some spare cash right now (couldn't we all) but there's nothing like being honest and the man was so grateful towards me that it kind of made my day lol after all it could of been his weeks pension, I'm just glad it was me behind him and not any of the local scally's.

Cheers guys, I did pass a few charity shops today as it happens Lee but no £10 m90's lol and your bang on there Dave, it was very tempting but I really could not of lived with the guilt if I had taken it. I would rather have a good nights kip tonight than be riddled with guilt and not sleep

the time this happened to me I thought
"what would happen if the boot was on the other foot? - say i'd left money hanging out of an ATM and left it?"
i'd tell you what - the geezer behind me would be having a slap up meal that evening
I guess I lived in a rough part of town
part of me thinks - ATM's have ben around now for the best part of 35 years -everyone should know how they work
I know it sounds cold - but needs must when the devil drives
fyi - I had a curry

so true "if the shoe was on the other foot " good thinking, 10 yrs from now you will be thinking how you gave instead of took, and to miss out on the sense being a fare person for a couple hundred $ is so sad
