Good Samaritans

I mentioned on Sunday night that we had lost our digital camera.  Luckily enough I had downloaded all the photos from it that morning, but still to lose a $1000 camera was a big blow.  Niki in particular was very upset as it was her who put it down whilst we were at the Glenbrook Festival on Saturday morning and hence blamed herself pretty badly and was inconsolable last night.

Well, good news!  She spoke to the other parents of Kate’s class mates this morning and one of them directed her to the woman in a book shop in Glenbrook.  Niki went this morning and saw her who said she was there on Saturday but had heard that someone had handed in a camera.  This book shop lady rang the guy who organised the whole festival who turned out to be the manager of a local café.  He said he had one and that he would be back in Glenbrook this afternoon.

Well I just got the call from Niki that she had the camera as this guy was given it by someone from the Rotary Sausage Sizzle stand who had received it from someone who found it either on the grass or on one of the picnic tables.

This is amazing given that it was found and handed in and that Niki was able to track it down.

So whoever handed it in, thank you very much.
