Such joy, I have been reunited with my watch thanks to the Wiltshire Times. Subsequent to the publication of my letter, I had two responses.
It is so heartwarming, not just because I have my watch which was special to me, to think that people take the trouble to restore items to their owners.
It isn't always easy to do so – no local police stations, bureaucracy etc. People are so kind to total strangers. There appears to be a real sense of community in Bradford on Avon.
Thank you, Wiltshire Times and Marilyn who looked after my watch until I was able to collect it.
Sandy, Newbury.
