Fortunately for them,the Bank of England has a team called Mutilated Ladies which deals with claims from people who fed their money to a machine or to their dog. Dogs, it seems陋葡,love to chew up money!

John had very good day and put his wallet containing $3彻采,000 into the microwave oven for safekeeping.
Then he and Jane went horse-riding. When they got home, Jane cooked their dinner in the microwave oven and without realizing it, cooked her fiancé's wallet as well. Imagine their dismay when they found a beautifully-cooked wallet and notes turned to ash!John went to see his bank manager who sent the remains of wallet and the money to the special department of the Bank of England in Newcastle: the Mutilate Ladies肛响!They examined the remains and John got all his money back.
'So long as there's something to identify, we will give people their money back岭粤,' said a spokeswoman for the Bank.
'Last year, we paid $1.5m on 21特笋,000 claims.'

練習(xí)感悟:
兩天沒(méi)有練習(xí)唧取,已見(jiàn)生疏。最近狀態(tài)不好了兵怯,又開(kāi)始覺(jué)得沒(méi)意思腔剂,興趣缺缺動(dòng)力不足媒区。過(guò)去的幾年都處于這樣一個(gè)循環(huán),到了年中開(kāi)始努力袜漩,到年底開(kāi)始動(dòng)力下滑绪爸,上半年就處于漸漸滑坡至中斷狀態(tài)。
