The lost-property collection

Source A: an original contemporary non-fiction-style account.

At the end of term, our swimming club asked families to collect anything they had left behind. I helped arrange the lost property on three folding tables in the entrance hall. Goggles went into a shallow tray, towels were folded by colour, and a row of water bottles stood against the wall. Items with names inside were kept separately so that the secretary could contact their owners directly.

The collection ran from four until six on Friday. One father recognised his daughter's blue towel immediately, then discovered that there were three almost identical ones. He checked the stitched initials before taking it. A pair of flippers remained unclaimed, despite attracting considerable interest from children who had never owned them. Anything still left after two weeks would be donated where possible, according to the notice sent to families. Before packing away, I found my own grey swimming cap at the bottom of the goggles tray. I had been blaming its disappearance on the washing machine.
