The pub staff chatted to Mariusz and found out where he'd been during their quest to find him. Turns out he'd gone to Poland for Christmas and didn't tell his wife he'd lost his wages. 。

And, if you're wondering how Mariusz came to find out that his money had been found by kind-hearted strangers, then you're in luck. Mariusz's son saw a post about the #FindMariusz campaign and asked him: "Could this be you Dad?"。" 。
