was the silver cup that I found in a skip that had been stolen from Cambridge uni in 1965 "rubbish" (the cup was stolen, not the skip - before Mingulay jumps in!) just because it was in a skip is it really rubbish?
They thought "NOT" & now it is back in their trophey cabinet.
I could go on to list at least 100 things that I have found that are not "rubbish" & have been returned/found new homes.
