You were lucky toots, This may not have happened in the city ! times have changed.

I was at the airport 3 years ago. I found  quite a big unusual bag beside my car on the ground. It was as it turned out made from goats skin.

With the troubles here, we had to be careful always about bags left unaccompanied. Security was our second name ] but i opened it anyway Well!  I near fell out of my standing when i seen the contents. It was full of jewelery.  Very very expensive jewelery. There was also a big wad of cash.

I took it back to the security inside the airport door. Laughed as the guy scanned it  nervously again when i explained i found it, as i had already looked inside. As he was taking my details a big tall man  [Africaan as it turned out ] came rushing through the doors . In a panic he was trying to explain he had lost his Goat skin bag. In his panic he hadnt noticed i was holding his bag either. I tipped his arm and said " Is this what your looking for. The relief on the mans face was something to behold.
He grabbed me and swung me around in a big bear hug . He was a Jeweler coming to a jewelery convention in Dublin.

In fairness to him he did offer me a reward for my honesty. The person with me thought i was pure stone mad refusing his offer. It was reward enough for me to return the bag to its rightful owner.

Me Mam always told us " If we take something thats not ours ! we lose it back 3 fold. So there is no joy in having whats not yours in the first place.

I declined his offer, he shook my hand and kissed my cheek.   We both went our own way, both satisified we had made the right choice  in this situation. .

Always go with your gut instinct i feel.

Have a blessed day.

Hi Phil and Russell,

Love the lyrics Phil, i would love to hear Hill / Mcgraw sing this song,  [ nothing wrong with your voice now, don't get all meowie now ] its there kind of duet song.

Guitar wise Hmmm Russell never a problem to you.

Sound wise on my pc it had a tinny sound or to much reverb !!

Just my humble opinion sirs.
