A task for Prince Charming


The informal lost and found system in my building is for the found item to be left on a side table in the foyer from where the owner can retrieve it either discreetly or in the full light of neighbourly glare.

Yesterday's found item was this snappy left shoe. Only the left shoe mind you, the right shoe was nowhere in sight.

It is amusing to speculate what condition a man might have been in to be wandering around with only one shoe.

I did consider turning into Prince Charming by taking the shoe from one apartment to another in the hope that I would find the hopefully sexy looking owner but with my luck on these matters quickly abandoned the thought.

  1. Does the Courier come in a plastic sleeve? How posh. Violence at Bondi....ha, who would have thought. Also be on the lookout for a one legged man.

  2. Isn't interesting how someone can loose one shoe? Hmmmm. Maybe I should loose one of mine and a Prince Charming could finally find me!

  3. Andrew - the full page coloured real estate advertisements prorbably pay for the individually packaged Wentworth Couriers.
