A man in Essex found a gold Rolex watch in the mud as he cleaned out a roadside drain. He took it to the police, who said it would legally be his in 30 days, if it wasn’t claimed…It has been. The owner rewarded him, but I wonder by what percentage of its monetary value?

I suspect the percentage will be low.
ReplyDeleteHonesty, like virtue, is it's own reward.
ReplyDeleteIf it were me, I wouldn't have wanted the ugly thing anyway. I don't like what it signfies and I wouldn't have wanted a dime. Thanks for the news flash. I don't know why I can't see your picture....

ReplyDeleteI quite agree, but it still makes me wonder how the owner decided what would constitute 'a reward'?
DeleteAn honest fellow! wow! we need more! thanks.
ReplyDeleteAmazing. wow.
ReplyDeleteDoes the reward matter?
ReplyDeleteOnly to the conscience of the owner...
DeleteHe should have rewarded him with a Timex!
