Do you keep a daily / weekly diary ?

No..although had to at collage as part of the course..I made a lot of it up!!!!

Would you read a diary if you found one, or return unread?

If I didn't know the person, I might read it. If I did know the person , depends on who it was, I may be tempted, but I would return it unread.
