Ten Quid
Posted on March 15, 2007 @ 9:57 am

Walking down Brewer Street in Soho to work this morning I noticed a ten pound note on the pavement (sidewalk). There was no one nearby that I saw that would have dropped it so I swooped and scooped as I walked by.

Then I felt guilty about it.

I looked over my shoulder half expecting that this is some new evil British reality show. Leave semi valuable things on the street and see if someone is desperate enough to pick it up!

No one was there.

Then I wondered if a serial killer has coated the bill with some toxic bacteria or a virus and because I was so greedy for a tenner I am going to die a horrible, painful, disfiguring death.

Then I said fuck it and bought myself a cup of coffee.
