A FOAF worked with a man who disappeared overnight , never even came back to the job to pick up his back money and abandoned his wife and young family . A few years later somebody who very much resembled the disappearee was spotted by one of his former colleagues in a smart area of London getting out of an expensive car and dressed to the nines. The ex workmate approached him ,but ,on seeing him, the man jumped straight back into his swanky car and tore away . The people at work remembered how around the time the man went awol there had been an anonymous , "no publicity" winner of the football pools .
