    Throwing it all away...

    Israel woman 'bins $1m mattress'
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/mid...st/8092942.stm

    A Tel Aviv woman has been searching through Israeli rubbish dumps after she said she accidentally threw away a mattress containing $1m (£700,000).

    Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

      Someone in Doncaster did something similar. Her hubby used to hide cash he'd earned on the black in the sofa. She went out one day and bought a new three piece as a surprise.

      You bet he was surprised!

        The provincial government of North Holland did something similar. They sent 10 million euros to a website known as icesave and won't see it again. Still, only taxpayers' money, so who cares?

          I bet she found the money and is pretending to have chucked the mattress away.

                I saw the thread title and I thought you'd gone all Phil Collins for a second. Just like the dimwit Iraeli lady, Phil is also much in need of a bullet in the head.
