BBC NEWS \| England \| South Yorkshire \| Man's �5 debt repaid 39 years on by ubernoir at 9:13 am EST, Dec 19, 2008
A Sheffield man who lent a penniless Australian tourist �5 to pay for a ferry trip in 1969 has been repaid his debt nearly 40 years later. While Jim Webb was out, a card and �200 was hand delivered to his home by Gary Fenton, to repay the money he borrowed when they met in Ostend, Belgium. A note inside read: "To Jim Webb, a good man. From Gary Fenton, a tardy payer of debts."
