Yeh I did a similar thing coming back from the 'ring a few years ago but with a better outcome.

I had stopped at Clacket Lane services on the M25 for fuel and put my wallet with passport, logbook driving licence etc on top of a closed pannier and walked to the shop.
Forgot about it, came out and ...

Thanks all for the welcome.

Hope to meet some of you sometime.

Cheers John
