long lost key

Early in 1990 I started a new job in Cumbria which came with a ground floor flat. This flat had a door of a shared hallway and a back door out onto the street which had no key to its Yale lock. No one had seen this key as the flat was converted as part of the re development of the site (which used to be a Brewery) many years previously and so I only used the door as an exit as I couldnt regain entry. Later the same year I joined a team of volunteers in the town (which I'm still with!) and made many new friends, one of which was the Team Leader who was a BBC Local Radio broadcaster. One day we agreed to meet up at my flat for a coffee and when I gave him directions he said that he knew where it was as he thought that he used to work there. On his arrival he confirmed that many years before, my flat was for a time, part of a small BBC radio studio and he used to work in it. On looking around he said he remembered that the back door was the one he used regularly and when I commented that I had no key, he laughed and said he would have a look at home. About a week later, he turned up with a worn Yale key which fitted and which I continued to use for the next few years until I moved on! The site has now changed again but I noted a while ago that the door and lock remain the same so I hope that the lost key is still being used! The Team Leader sadly died the following year but this is something that comes to mind when I remember him.
