Lost wallet from 80s found behind nightclub radiator

NIGHTCLUB bosses want to reunite a reveller with the brown leather wallet she lost...more than 30 years ago.

Found behind a radiator, it is a mini time capsule for the mid-80s.

As well as a cheque card from the now defunct Midland Bank, it contained 12 pence in change, and photo ID with a black and white passport photo.

The bank card belonged to an Elizabeth Sarah Dale.

There was also a Cheshire Libraries and Museums card, a University of Manchester Whitworth Park Residents’ Associatio­n card from 1985/86 and a payslip.

Elizabeth lived in Thelwall, Warrington, Cheshire. Chris Mann, bar manager at the O2 Ritz nightclub in Manchester, said: “We were clearing out the other day and it had fallen down the back of a radiator. “She would been about 18 or 19 back then, so might be in her early 50s. “It’s coming up to our 90th birthday so it might be nice to reunite it with its owner. “We want to find out what they were doing in the Ritz and whether they actually remember it.” The Smiths famously played their first gig at the nightspot which has also hosted The Stone Roses, Arctic Monkeys and Snow Patrol.
