Ahh, finding money in a bin.  Or on the road.  Or anywhere.  Pennies, pounds or notes.  This is why most council workers turn up in the morning.  One of my colleagues had a habit of writing down how much money he had found every day.  He had a severe case of money finditus. He would check telephone boxes to see if anyone had left any change after a call.  I think he had increased his wage by about 10 pence a day over the many years he had been working at the council.
