Found in Bray, St. Patrick's Day

Los Lobos

Hi people!

A work colleague of mine found this in Bray on St. Patrick's day, we thought it looks like it might be important to someone.

Anyone know anybody that may be looking for it?

Mods, please move if there is a specific lost and found thread; I have never visited this forum before so was not sure.

Thanks!

I shared this in the Wicklow forum... Hopefully this can be reunited with the rightful owner.

I shared this with Greystones Camera Club members , some of who were there on the day. Many thanks for posting.

I've posted this on the Open Bray Forum on Facebook - some people have mentioned a recent theft of similar equipment, and another person has said there's a notice up about lost equipment in the Ballywaltrim Community Centre.

It's getting a bit of publicity anyway.

Great idea to post this and I'd love to hear if the owner turns up. I think it would be great if there was a Lost and Found site online for every area - to begin with in counties or countries, I suppose. How do such ideas go viral? My son's fiancee is visiting us and lost a REALLY special beautiful scarf in the woods, somewhere between Crone, Wicklow Way towards Djouce mountain, we walked past the back of the Waterfall and down to Paddock Lake and on down towards the Waterfall Road on Wednesday. Retraced the route, but no sign of it, on Thursday, so someone probably picked it up. Wouldn't it be great to be able to look online if the first thing people thought of doing was to post items they found? They wouldn't have to give all the details and if no one claimed they could keep it with a clear conscience. Of course some people might prefer to keep the item, but many people are decent about that. I had an experience once of losing a necklace with a lot of sentimental value. It was on my way down the Sugarloaf on a busy Sunday. When I couldn't find it, I left a notice on the gate with my mobile number and sure enough someone found it and returned it to me. I've sometimes found nice things in the woods and would be happy to return them if I knew how to do it. Rewards could be given and a lot of people made really happy - we all hate to lose things, even a favourite earring, and it wouldn't take a few minute to stick a photo online, many things, like stolen discarded handbags, may be of great value to their owners but not to anyone else! It is particularly the case for pets. I think the online forum is developing more in relation to them, but I don't think there is one good comprehensive website for lost and found that people automatically go to. Maybe there could even be a potential living to be made by someone who cleverly developed this idea?

Lost and Found forums have been proposed (and rejected) a few times before. Perhaps when the site moves away from the vBulletan code that proposal might fall on more receptive ears again.
