Is this you?

I know you don’t normally do this but I found a GoPro Hero4 underwater sports camera washed up on Dollymount Strand in Dublin. This (above) is the best shot I could find on the camera of the owner. If you could please share it with your Broadsheet readers to see if we can re-unite them.

I know you don’t usually do this, but I found an envelope with someone’s payslip and wages in it this afternoon on St Andrew’s Street in Dublin City centre. The person’s name is Orla Murphy and the payslip is written on a restaurant document (no name).

Anyone?

I know you don’t normally do this but I’ve lost my favourite watch :-( I was cycling in town with it in my pocket and it must have fallen out – coming from the liberties towards Drumcondra via Patrick Street then Dorset Street. It’s quite new but there is a dark line on the strap underneath the buckle. If anyone sees it please let me know.

Anyone?

Update:  Meg writes: The watch has been found, back in the Liberties, in the pocket of a hoodie, turns out it never left the house!

I know you don’t usually do this, but this weekend we lost my son Felix’s extremely beloved duck on the Number 77 bus from Pearse Street [Dublin]. It was around 5pm, and we got on at Pearse St and off at Cork St. Dublin Bus lost property doesn’t operate at the weekends, and by the time we called, there was no sign of Ducky.
If anybody saw Ducky and could give us a lead, it would be amazing. Alternatively, if anyone has any ideas about where we could get a replacement Ducky. We won him at a fair in the Green Door Market on Newmarket Square at the beginning of the summer – I think it was for the Hope Foundation…

I know you don’t normally do this but I found this Kindle in the basket of the Dublin Bike I got at the Kevin Street stop around 8.45 this morning. It’s registered to Andrew Dillon, I can’t seem to find his personal email address on the kindle so I thought someone here on Broadsheet might know him or he might see it himself.

Anyone?

UPDATE: Andrew located. Thanks all.

Just had a brand new bike stolen in Monkstown area of [County] Dublin. It’s so unusual looking and it’s only been used 4 times!! It’s a Canyon Grand CF5.9 (XL frame), Orange-Grey. Has a black and white Kellys saddle, not the Canyon saddle. Might help identify it…

I know you don’t normally do this but this phone was handed into Kilmainham Garda station, [left in the back of a taxi. Who can ID the doggie? I know if I lost my pics I’d be going mad. Please help us get this phone back to its owner…

That Macbook Air.

Found in Temple Bar, Dublin.

Found the owner, folks, thanks. I did it by using terminal and resetting password as outlined by Nialler (see below). I have contacted the owner in the country they live in and am posting it to them….

Nialler’s tip: Boot the machine while holding cmd-R, go through the language stage of recovery mode then in the utilities menu at the top go to Terminal, once terminal launches type the following: ‘resetpassword’ Up pops the reset password utility, reset the users password then log in. Go to the users contacts and find the Me contact and give him a call. Simples!!
