Today, Deb and I met with Roma, who found Deb's wedding, Engagement, eternity and a special emerald ring, she lost at Innaminka on 4th Sep 2013. Roma was a lovely, genuine lady, who was on a bus trip to the Birdsville races from Victoria with some friends. It came about the bus wasn't going to leave Innaminka as early as first thought because of the line of vehicles wanting fuel. Roma and her friend decided to walk up from the town common to the hotel/store and get the bus from there. As Roma was walking across the large parking area, as everybody knows of, she first saw one ring on the dusty ground, and then her friend found another ring and so on until all four rings were found in about half a metre.
After talking to Roma, it appears, she found the rings within 30 minutes after Deb lost them. After Roma found the rings, she spoke to the barmen at the pub and when she made Birdsville for the races, put up signs in the local pub and toilets, as she thought we may have been heading that that.
When she returned to Victoria with her friends, she tried to find a national radio station, but it was not until she returned to the Gold Coast, that she used the station she normally listens to. She contacted Meryl Swanson on a radio station out of Newcastle, who broadcasts state wide.
Meryl spoke about the rings for some time and then one of the swaggers (73coupe) heard this conversation and posted on the thread, Bullfrog - Bevan, a mate of mine, phoned me, whilst I was fuelling up in Port Augusta. Deb rang the radio station straight away and this is the link to the on air conversation http://chirb.it/Ka57qg ( hope it works) if not here is Meryl's facebook page, where you can find the same link https://www.facebook.com/pages/Meryl-Swanson/309053992482798.
Yes, so Deb was reunited with her rings, with one relieved husband and very relieved wife.
Picture is of Roma and Deb, with the rings on her fingers, where they belong.
