While in Johannesburg, South-Africa, for the World Schools Debating Championships I was in a shop where they sold all this authentic African stuff, and decided to buy a djembe (African drum). I was halfway out of the store, when suddenly someone tapped on my shoulder. It was the shopkeeper with my wallet which I had left lying on the counter. Everything was still in it, and the stupid thing is I was so baffled I could only stammer something like 'thanks man' before he took off again. Remember that this was Johannesburg, probably the most dangerous and criminal city in the world! Talk about being lucky!! [img]smile.gif[/img]
