Man reunited with phone after dropping it into a river 10 months ago
A man who lost his mobile phone in the River Wye 10 months ago says he "can't believe" it has been returned to him in working order.
Miguel Pacheco found it earlier this month while canoeing with his family, dried it out at home and posted photos online to try to track down the owner.he went to a lot of effort to dry out the phone because there may have been "sentimental" things on it. After Mr Pacheco, from Drybrook, Gloucestershire, found the phone, he dried it out with an airline and compressor, before placing it in the airing cupboard overnight.The screensaver showed a photo of a man and woman with the date 13 August; the day it had fallen into the water.After posting the photos in his local Cinder Noticeboard Facebook group, they were shared more than 4,000 times.
