I feel that I must write to say thank you to the person who handed my purse to the young lady on the till in Marks & Spencer on Thursday, December 18.

It was returned to me immediately and I was so grateful.

It is so wonderful to find people who are so honest in this day and age.

I am sorry I don’t know the person’s name.

However, I very much hope they read the Echo, or someone tells them.
