When that wasn’t successful, said John, she radioed an alert about his plight and then very kindly drove him home where he was later called upon by the police who returned his wallet.
“I just want to thank the traffic warden - I don’t even know her name but she went out of her way for me. Also, the person who handed my wallet in and the police who delivered it right to my door,” said John.
