I could have just paid that straight into my account.
The bank would not have batted an eyelid as it's an insurance payout. The beneficiaries would never have known. I could have just kept the money.

That's kind of why I got in touch with the solicitors as soon as I knew there was a payment coming in to stop me being tempted to keep the cash.

Really though. How often does someone randomly get paid nigh on a hundred grand that isn't expected anywhere else?

Could have easily had a Father Ted situation!

IT WAS JUST RESTING IN THE ACCOUNT!

Hey, Garold, look outside for a sec and wave to me will you? Don't mind the camera.
