Lost watch - found it :-)
I lost my watch this morning, possibly on the Heritage Trail in Stonefields, between the Magma Cres entrance, and the top of the steps up from Barbarich Dr. Its an analogue watch, (with hands), (Olympic I think) with a gold coloured wrist band. If found, please contact me on 0210355449. Thank you!
Went back and found it :-)
