Have you seen this handbag?

I’m hoping you can help us out. My sister’s handbag was stolen last night (Sunday, October 9) from Busáras Station, [Store Street, Dublin 1] at around 10:30pm.
While the handbag and most contents can be replaced there’s one thing that cannot-there was a large pink plastic folder in the bag containing hundreds of photos of our grandparents, parents and all my siblings and me growing up-in particular some of our late mother.
Our father’s 65th birthday is coming up and we were trying to put something together with the photos to mark it. All the photos are originals and hadn’t been digitally copied yet so it’s quite upsetting.
I’m hoping you can ask readers to keep an eye out in the vicinity of Busáras for the handbag (above) and bright pink folder with all the photos. It would mean so much to us to get them back. The bag also contained some money, two asthma inhalers, earphones and a bright pink hot water bottle so very random contents!!
Anyone?

Amazingly enough a friend found about ten of our photos this morning along with the folder but most are gone and the photos were all wet but hopefully retrievable.Our friend passed the street coming from Marlborough Quay into Hawkins Street-at the corner there are two phone booths and this is where she saw the photos laying around and picked them up. I’m hoping someone else spotted the photos earlier and took them.
