Good on ya, Jay!
I did my good deed a few weeks back. Found a mobile phone, fairly decent model. We had just been to my Grandads funeral service, and was wandering around the graveyard, when I spotted this phone.
It was powered up, and hadnt been raining thankfully. I called a few numbers off there, HOME etc. Managed to get hold of someone, and they said, oh thats my mums. I said I would wait for them at the church.
Around 20 minutes later, a car pulled up, it was some old dear and was VERY thankful.
I had the same done to me in a bar years back. I had recently paid around 300 for a Ericsson T28i (IIRC), then hadnt got it. A young lass bought it back, bought her a drink and the rest is history. LOL not really on the last bit, but was very grateful.
My EX on the other hand. Found a N95 8GB the other month. Had pictures of a girls 18th on it. This girl even CALLED her asking for it back and my ex said NO and hung up.
A week later it was blocked and now nothing more than an expensive brick.
Why? I'd have felt REALLY GOOD about returning the phone to the owner, guess we are all not the same. Hence she is my ex
This girl probably saved hard for it, and Karma does work as now she is having a few difficulties shall we say
But yeh, Jay, I would have done exactly the same. No point asking about "anyone lost a wallet with 95 sovs in" PMSL.
Good on ya

Couple of months back me and a friend were driving away from college to find an old dear stuck in the middle of the road on her mobility scooter because the battery had run out..
Everybody else had stopped and started blaring their horns at her telling her to move, so we got out pushed her approx 1/4 mile to her home, put the shopping in her house and put the scooter away on charge.
Had to go for a pint and a game of darts after that, we were knackered
