I signed up some three weeks ago on this website to receive details and so-called 'clues' about where to find these elusive pounds but I haven't even heard anything back from anybody yet....what is going on? Is this some sort of elaborate hoax?? Simon, 24 Oct. Reply: Very sorry that you did not received any information, Found a Pound is a personal project as an artist and fortunately/unfortunately I have been working 12-15 hours a day solidly for the last 3 weeks so have had to put almost everything else on hold. I have sent you the details now and I hope you find a pound. If you have any further feedback please let me know. Rowan I found £40 at a petrol station once and kept it, had no idea whose it was.
