Lost and found

Hello, is this the lost property office? I know, I lose things every week. Today it's my wallet. I think I left it on the eight-fifteen train.

Never leave your wallet on the seat, my mum says. I do it every time! Can you find it, please? It has my bus pass in it. And a photo of my cat.

It's a brown leather bag with a long strap. It's quite heavy. There's a zip on the front and a small pocket on the side.

What's inside? A laptop, two books and a sandwich. It looks like a normal bag, I know. But it's my bag, and the sandwich is from yesterday. Please hurry!

Excuse me, can you help me? I found a phone on the bus and I want to hand it in. Do I need to fill in a form?

OK. I can go back to the bus stop and wait, if you like. The owner is probably looking for it. Please let me know when somebody comes. I'm Sara, and my number is on the form.

Dad, good news! The driver found my bag. Thank goodness! It was under a seat. Don't worry, my laptop is still inside.

I want to give him a reward. Can I have his contact details? What? No, not chocolate. Well, maybe a little chocolate. Okay. I'm going to the bus station now. Bye!

Mum, it's been a bad day. I can't find my earphones. I look everywhere, but nothing. And my gloves are gone, and it's minus two outside!

Now I'm at the police station, because my ID card is missing too. The officer is very kind. He asks, "Have you looked in your coat?" Oh. Mum, I've got everything. It was all in my coat. Please don't tell Dad.
