britain, island of bliss

yesterday night i was clever enough to leave the bag with my camera equipment worth about 3,000 euros hanging on a trolley outside heathrow airport. when i noticed half an hour later my first thought was that there’s virtually no chance to get it back, whereas my brother, who lives in london, just ment “hey, this is england. i’d be surprised if it hadn’t been turned in yet.”

another half an hour later, after being put through a couple of times, i knew it for sure: it’s at the lost & found counter, apparently without anything missing. wow, what a country!

update: picked it up meanwhile, not a piece was missing :-)
