An angry note has never brought so much joy.

“I have a video of you walking away from your car on numerous occasions, you are not handicappe­d!!” reads a note left on the car of Natasha Hope-Simpson of Halifax, Nova Scotia, who parks in a “handicap” spot. The writer threatened to call cops on her.

Hope-Simpson — who has a prosthetic left leg — said she was “flattered” by the note: “I’ve been working pretty hard on my walk to make it look natural.”

Ivica Jerkovic misplaced his billfold 14 years ago, with 2,000 German marks — worth about 1,000 euros today— inside.

The wallet was recently mailed back to him, with 1,440 euros tucked into it.

He believes someone used the money and is now repaying the favor, with interest.
