Hello
Ok so just a quick but really quite amazing tale.
So about two weeks ago my Aunty Mavis, now 80 odd and losing some of the weight so essential in defining her younger self, lost her wedding ring somewhere in her house. Obviously upset by this unfortunate occurrence Mavis conducted a thorough search of her place, alas to no avail. Now, over the back wall and down the road a bit lives Aunty Mavis' daughter and her husband Ian. Around a week after Mavis' ring had gone for a ball of chalk Ian, also lost his wedding ring (he thought) whilst shopping in Asda. According to him he first noted the naked finger following a delve into the lose onions. In the same manner as Aunty Mavis so too did Ian conduct a thorough search and, again, just like Mavis, the hunt proved fruitless. Fast forward to a few days ago and Ian receives a call from Asda that his ring has been handed in having been found beneath the potatoes... the same day, in her kitchen Aunty Mavis finally locates her own wedding ring, yes.... in a bag of spuds
