Call me cynical but perhaps he wasn't out last night just to enjoy himself perhaps there was a little business involved which would also explain why there was no such reward. It may not be his to give


Could have been to the local Poker club??

This is not the first time you have made this request, have you thought about deed poll?

If he was a Poker player, you would have had a good bung for returning the wallet.

Looks like you could have got a fiver for your troubles if you'd handed in to the police...

Quote from Hackney Carriage Byelaws..

be entitled to receive from any person to whom the property shall be re-delivered an amount equal to five pence in the pound of its estimated value (or the fare for the distance from the place of finding to the local Police Station, whichever be the greater) but not more than five pounds.

Probably cost more than a fiver in time and trouble though......
