Paddling Handbag


A local Milford on Sea resident took advantage of the warm weather last Thursday, and ventured into the sea for a paddle.  This gentle excursion turned into a small drama when her handbag was suddenly washed out to sea on a strong wave.

As the beige/cream handbag made it’s exit, a lipstick, pen and plastic container could be seen slowly escaping from the bag.  Vain efforts to grab the bobbing bag from the incoming roll of the surf were thwarted by the strong draw of the tide.

The next day a kind soul handed in the found purse to Lymington Police Station.  All of the purse contents were in order and the police even dried the notes before returning them to the owner.

The handbag itself, and the rest of the contents remain missing.  So, if you have spotted, Two sets of house keys (one has a Citroen key fob & Spanish boat mascot, the other has a Mercedes key & yellow top key), a very soggy cheque book, or the handbag in question, please let me know by e-mail, and they can be returned to their car keyless owner.
