Left in a ‘pick-up’ taxi.
Joe Maher, guitarist in The Marionnnes, writes:
I left my brown Fender Telecaster Modern Player (above in foreground) behind in a taxi last night. In a guitar bag full of pedals amounting to around a grand’s worth.
I hailed the driver on South Circular Road [Dublin 8] at around 2.30 and he brought me to North Brunswick Street [Dublin 7] outside the Richmond apartments where I live. I left without thinking of it because im an idiot. No number no car type. :( The driver was of African descent that’s pretty much all I know…
Anyone?
UPDATE: Possible guitar sighting (see comments).

“I left without thinking of it because im an idiot.”

Wouldn’t it be great if we could rely on the honesty of so called ‘Professional’ drivers to return property to its rightful owner.
Sadly not.
Did you ring store street Garda station? They have a log of lost property that is handed in to stations in the greater dublin area. Although busy, the guy was very helpful to me when I rang.
I think it’s been found. There has been one handed in. God bless you all for the support! Especially your words of wisdom there ‘daddy’.
