    So was just cleaning out the crap from my wallet and found a phone number on piece of a beer mat. It looks like its been there a while and the number is not in my phone. Looks like a wasted opportunity:(
    After other nights Ive found other peoples credit cards and pps cards.

    Dont really keep anything weird but Im sure the folks her in AH will have a few strange items:D

    Nothing strange really. I have some useless stuff though. A library card that I haven't used in about 10 years. A HSE drugs payment scheme card that I've never used or even know what it's for. And an AIB bank card from a student account I opened 8 years ago that has €20 in it (+interest :eek: ) but I don't know the pin number.

    Why not ring it? It could be the dry cleaning you forgot to collect.

    I found a micro SD card that I thought I'd lost... I'd bought another one too to replace it. In a shop one day, "oh what's this?" I went menthol. (sp intended) :confused:

    An advertising sticker for the 2007 NUIG musical society production.

    A good friend of mine played the lead and gave me one of the stickers. I put it in my wallet and it's still there.

    It has kinda fused with my wallet though so I'm not sure if I even could remove it.:rolleyes:

    An NRA shooting range membership card.

    Actually it's a non-membership card... meaning it's a sort of visitors pass.

    I used to have a polaroid of my own ass. Was no good reason for it, obviously. But i always forgot, and it was visible when i opened my wallet in a lil transparent bit.

    I carry around a picture of a lingerie model that I cut out of a magazine.
    When I'm chatting up women I show it to them and pretend that it's a picture of my dead fiancé.

    A few cinema ticket stubs - the oldest being from 16/07/1999 and was from Star Wars Episode 1, a Dublin to Rome boarding pass stub from Sep 2005, and a ticket from a Florence bus (also 2005).

    Transferred to a new wallet a month ago, after the clearout the only oddness (relative speaking) is a few guitar picks...

    I found an old 20p coin and a razor blade. The money would have been used to make an emergency phone call, back in the day. Not sure bout the razor blade
