Priceless love note penned on 20
euro note
28.08.15
A ROMANTIC message
penned by a young Irish woman on a 20 euro note in
the hope of re-uniting with a lost love is rapidly
going viral.
The love note written in blue ink reads: "Christy,
it's always been you! Come and find me - Megan x".
Meath woman Denise O'Reilly was stunned to find the
€20 - with its echoes of the romantic film
'Serendipity' - when she opened her purse last
Sunday morning.
Hopeless romantic Denise, who works at Supervalu,
Kells, immediately posted a photo of the money and
its love-lorn words in the hope of re-uniting the
two lost loves.
"Found this is my purse this morning! Ah Christy,
she loves you! Go get your girl. Come on people and
share," Denise wrote on her Facebook page.
The post has been shared almost 16,000 times while
sending people into a frenzy of speculation as they
try to work out if any of their friends are the
mysterious protagonists Christy and Megan. |

Love me tender. |
The wishful Irish note,
sent longingly into the universe, is reminiscent of
the plot from the film 'Serendipity' starring John
Cusack and Kate Beckinsale. In the 2001 movie,
star-crossed lovers Sara and Jonathan write messages
to each other on a five dollar bill and in a book,
respectively, in the hope that one day they would
each find the other's note and know they are meant
to be together.
Meanwhile back on home soil, and with the power of
social media, it appears Denise's helpful
intervention may have worked its serendipitous
magic.
A young Dublin-based musician named Christy this
week posted an intriguing message on the supermarket
worker's page, telling readers: "Hey, just quick
update: I've been in touch with Megan and it's all
good. Thanks so much for posting."
So have Christy and Megan found their happy ending?
We have 20 euro on it that they might just have! |
