PLEASE would you publish a thank you to two men, Mr Holderness and Mr Wade, who found my handbag last Thursday and handed it into the NatWest Bank in Chippenham.

Being a housewife and mother of two young children, money is extremely tight, and I was devastated when I realised I'd lost my handbag. In this day and age I automatically assumed that I could wave goodbye to everything in it.

I was extremely relieved and refreshed to find it had been handed in, so a huge thank you to the men who, unlike the countless others who passed an injured cyclist in Cepen Park without stopping, have restored my faith in human nature. I would also like to thank the security guards in Emery Gate for all their help.
