    Yesterday morning on my way home from work I found a bag on Thomas Street (accross from The Tram pub)

    It was a brown canvas mans shoulder bag. No biggie except that there was a set of keys for a BMW inside. Also, an Argos catalogue and a grey sock.

    I guess somebody robbed it, went through it for anything valuable and then dumped it on the side of the road.

    Anyway, dropped it into Kilmainham Garda Station. Know its a long shot but just thought I'd put it out there and maybe this'll get back to the owner!

    you could bring the keys to a BMW main dealer, they can insert the key into their computer and all the owner details come up.
    now they may not give them to you but you could explain the situation and ask them to contact the official owner.

    i know the most valuable things were took from the bag already but a BMW key costs €155 from a dealer so to get that back to the owner would be a blessing!

    means they dont have to worry about if the thief has the keys, will they come looking for the car, have the key to my house too etc etc

    fair play for taking the time and handing them in.

    I don't have the keys anymore as I handed everything into the Garda station. I presume the Gardai would do something like that with the keys would they?

    Hehe, my thoughts exactly. Why is there always only one sock?

    My mother got her keys back from the Gardai. She had a keytag of Dunnes Loyalty card on it; they asked Dunnes to scan it in, they looked her up in the phone book and voila, a phone call from the local gardai to collect them BEFORE she even realised she'd lost them!
