Hi All,

Many thanks for the responses. The wallet is an old one, like 2010.

Just a bit of background detail, so many years ago, i bought some software and the vendor wanted bitcoin, eh! whats that!.... so we went through setting up a wallet and buying bitcoin, he wanted like 27000 bitcoin, which worked out to be like 50 quid. so set it up, sent him his bitcoin, got the software and all was well. I topped up the bitcoin and then backed everything up and zipped it away, and forgot about it until last year. I have exhausted every avenue in terms of where i thought the bitcoin could be, and these include the following :-

1) In an email - email account locked
2) on a memory stick - hid it, cannot find it
3) written in a book (the passphrase) - Dog ate book

So now I am going through all my hard drives, bit by bit and its driving me crazy, Somewhere I have, I think a lot of bitcoins. And also I did mining and other useless things
for a short while, so i am sure I will find something.
