I was covering a duty I'd never done before, a few years ago now. Every day I had mail for a certain address and I never could find it, so killed it of every day when I got back, on the DOM's instructions I hasten to add. Anyway on the last day I was covering the duty, I found this overgrown path under some low branches of some trees and bushes, and guess what I found at the end of the path? Yes the missing house. Another one was walking down a track about a hundred yards long to a house only to be met by the owner who tells me he put a box at the top of the drive, never found that, but I did find a tenner!
