This Sweet Aussie Tale Of An Impossible-To-Lose Ring Is Basically Reverse Lord Of The Rings

In an incredibly wholesome thread, an Aussie Twitter user has shared the gorgeous tale of a ring which refuses to get lost. Jenny Frecklington-Jones AKA @JonesHowdareyou on Twitter told the story of a ring she was given as a 14-year-old which has haunted her life ever since. The ring in question is a nine carat gold “friendship ring

The boy was a very good cricket fast bowler. He bowled that ring down the road hard as he could in anger and last I saw it — a glint of gold flew off into the horse paddock way down the street,” Jenny wrote. I decided this ring was always going to come back to me no matter what,” Jenny said.

“I started lending it to people who didn’t like to fly but were travelling long distance by plane … it always comes back to me safely I’d say.

“And it kept coming back.” 

And she returned it to me.

So I decided this ring was always going to come back to me no matter what.

And I started lending it to people who didn't like to fly but were travelling long distance by plane … "it always comes back to me safely I'd say."

And it kept coming back.

"It's been all over the world keeping travelers safe. And it always comes back to me. Keep it as long as you need."

Bob put the ring on his little finger and we said goodbye.

Of course he made it to Perth in one piece.

We chatted occasionally by phone. All good. No regrets.

“‘Well. There you go’, I thought. ‘It’s never coming back again. It’s gorn’,” Jenny explained. 

“I couldn’t think why Bob had not used a padded bag but … some men, hey?” 

and the ring was back.

There are some absolutely amazing people working for Australia Post.

The end.

PS: I still send the ring on long trips with nervous travelers.
