SIR - May I say a big thank you to everyone who helped me the day I lost my purse on February 6.

To the man and his wife who gave me money to go to town by bus.

To the kind bus driver who believed I'd lost my purse and my bus pass and took me into CrownGate, and to a different bus driver who brought me back to Monarch Drive, again without my bus pass.

I got my purse back and many thanks to all concerned.

SUE WEAVER Worcester.
