Draco Rattus' Racial Feat - find random crap on the street once every d4 days!
I have the not-so-amazing but sometimes handy talent of finding stuff in the street. Ornaments, jewellery, money, furniture; chances are if it's been lost or abandoned, I will stumble across it and take it home with me.

Things which I have so far found and 'adopted' include:

- a set of 'Hare and the Tortoise' fridge magnets
- a 9ct gold ring
- a ceramic turquoise donkey that looks like it's on crack
- two bookcases, on two separate occasions
- a variety of brand-name pint glasses, e.g. Carling, Fosters etc.
- a fledgling blackbird, which survived
- a baby mouse (which later died - *sadface*)
- £100 in bank notes
- £40 in bank notes
- a DS game (which turned out not to work - boo!)
- various CDs which worked fine
- a variety of soft toys, including a small turtle and a duck in a hat
- a bag of books (left outside a charity shop after closing time, in the rain; I took them home to keep them dry, then took them along to the charity shop the next day)

I swear, I am going to turn into Mr Trebus when I'm older. Or maybe I'm already like him now. :|

Nice one! :D
Expert scavenging there! I tend to do the same with the more valuable items - I tried going to the local Police Station with the money, but they weren't having any of it. Oh well.

You found a £100 in notes?
Thank God, I'd thought it was lost! Could you post it to me?
