Garbo finds $22,000 in a bin

[Blinger1]

A rubbish collector in central England could have a very good Christmas if he can solve one of the biggest jigsaw puzzles going $22,000 of torn up bank notes.
Graham Hill found the large bundle of cut up 10- and 20-pound notes while emptying bins in Lincoln, a city in central England, last May, according to the Lincolnshire Echo newspaper.
He handed the package to police, but after six months no one had claimed the notes and investigators could find no evidence that it was stolen or linked to criminal activity.
The Bank of England said it would exchange the notes for new ones if Hill could piece the money back together again.
"Providing the bank notes meet the evidence requirements, then an application for reimbursement should be successful," a central bank spokeswoman said. "In particular we look at the two serial numbers on the front of the notes."
Colleagues of Hill's are hoping he gets to work quickly.
"I just hope he pieces enough of th enotes back together to get a round of drinks in at the works Christmas do," a co-worker was quoted as saying.
"Christmas is only around the corner, so any bonus will be welcome."
