Rubbish tip workers: 'We found OAP's life savings'
Recycling centre workers Tony Scanlon and Kenny McAdam spent two hours hunting through rubbish to find old gravy tins containing a pensioner's 拢20,000 life savings.
The cash was accidentally dumped at Dalmoak Recycling Centre in Dunbartonshire by the woman's family, who were clearing out her home.
Kenny said he and Tony did their "very best" to retrieve the money and "save the day for old pensioner".
Tony added that the family were delighted that they found the substantial sum of cash.
