Free fall cash (bare notes,coins on pavements etc) are fair game for the pocket.
Purses,wallets etc are considered theft by finding if not handed in to respective authorities for the mandatory waiting period after which, if they remain unclaimed, become property of the state.
Something a little stranger happened to me as i was waiting to use the Cash machine at my local CO-OP, the guy in front was withdrawing cash and getting a mini statement, he seemed a little engrossed in his mobile at the time, he gathered his statement and proceded into the co-op, as i placed my card into the machine i noticed a wad of notes sticking out of the dispensing slot....then up pops the preverbial good angel, devil scenario, taking it from the machine there was £140 in twentys... i looks around, no one about, sticks it in my pocket. Puts in my cash card, checks balance withdraws cash...then a feeling of guilt envelopes my whole being...is this food money for his kids? is it rent money? Is he going to spunk it over some fruity? etc etc... in the end i went into the co-op and found the guy at the the baby food and nappies aisle, wanders up and says, "scuse me mate i believe this is yours", and wonders off to me motor.
Guilt can do some funny things to people, must be old age coz if i was in my twentys that would have paid for a nice piss up and a chinese on the way home....and f*** the consequences....
