I went to bed and felt sick that I'd lost all of the photos of his first day after being born, family coming to visit, etc.
The following morning I rang it again and someone answered. They'd found it outside the Chinese. We agreed on a mutally convenient location for me to collect it. I offered to give the guy £20. He refused to accept it, no matter how persistent I was. It turned out that he knew my wife and her family through them going to the same church, so I told him to use it there, which he did.
