    Reward!

    Bit of a long shot (well, a lot of a long shot) but I lost my car key in the Shelf Moor area on New Year's Eve. Having found out the cost of a replacement I will gladly pay a £50 reward/donation to a worthy cause if anyone fancies a wild goose chase and actually finds it.

    We headed from the plane wreck (Overexposed) to Higher Shelf Trig and followed the trod down Shelf Benches and along Mossy Lea to the turning circle. I'm pretty sure it was still in the rucksack pocket at the plane wreck.

    Will have to wait until after pay day to order a new one, so there's a couple of weekends for searching! Its a black Fiat key (in case you find more than one!).

    You have aroused my curiosity - cost of a replacement key?

    I got quoted 30 to £70 by a high street locksmith for my little Matiz.

    Thanks for tip about laminating contact details Ian. Went to Glossop police station to report loss in case someone handed it in - closed from 1pm on 31 Dec to 3 Jan!

    I was able to return a lost Trilby last summer - the owner had written his phone number on the inside rim and by pure fluke he also lived in Marple.

    Well trilbies are all very well for summer fell running, but for the Trigger I'd recommend a deerstalker.
