There are more good people than bad in the world. I explain this to Mini-Trub all the time and especially emphasised it about a month ago when her bag, passport, money and camera went mysteriously missing at a busy train station. I said 'someone could have found it and handed it in' as we pessimistically left our details with the lost property and tried to report it to our local police station where they seemed unsurprised and very unwilling to take any details. And just now I get a phonecall from a very good looking young garda saying he found the bag. Complete with camera, passport and all her money. All of it.  |

A friend of mine left her handbag on the tube (1980s) and when she reported it, was told that things like that get returned more often than not, because most people are honest.
Strange, though, that it just disappeared. That does sound suspicious.

Trubs How could you tell your polis was handsome just from his voice? Are you projecting . . . you dirty old woman!  Could we replace this  with one saying 'fully-grown woman power' do you think? |

Riot, I think the whole point of this thread is to believe and your dreams might come true. ;D

Strange, though, that it just disappeared. That does sound suspicious. The strap is apparently broken so it could have fallen but it seems to have been found a little bit away from anywhere she walked and definitely away from the station - she swears she had it at the station but perhaps that was her memory playing tricks. I've decided not to to try to figure it out. I kept saying that, I kept pointing out the amount of times that we had returned things. Even on the night concerned when we went back into town to retrace all her footsteps just in case it had dropped somewhere, we found someone else's purse and reunited it with the owner. Still, I forgot to have faith in my own wisdom! |

So pleased I'd put my glass down at that point. I've a feeling I might have fused the computer! That's sweet. |

Vile, disgusting rebel propaganda...I'm shocked and hurt that you would post such horribleness.  If you ever need the services of a real Imperial trooper, or you just fancy a ride, give me a call...  AH |

No imagination in those clone trooper uniforms, and how do you go to the loo? Now this is more for the pirate-about-town with hideous ritualistic scars all over his body!  fightingfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Varek_Azzur |

Not sure if I want to guess how that chap goes to the loo either? I had heard of storm troopers resorting to giant nappies.  |
