Handheld and console found in Brighton.

I was strolling along Madeira Drive, Brighton, at 4:30 PM on Saturday when I found a handheld console and a separate handheld device tucked beneath a bench near the Brighton Pier. The devices looked recently dropped, still powered, with a few stickers and a light scratch on one screen. I picked them up and kept them in my bag, hoping the owner would see this and come forward through the site. They seemed cared-for, suggesting whoever owns them is perhaps anxious to have them back before the next game session.

lost: Photographs near Brighton Palace Pier

I lost a small stack of photographs on Tuesday around 7:45 p.m. while strolling along the Brighton seafront near the Pavilion. They’re a mix of black-and-white prints and a few colour snaps from a trip to the South Downs, memories of my late grandmother. They were tucked into a faded album that I carried in my bag. They hold a lot of sentimental value, and I’m hoping they didn’t blow away into the windy sea air. If you picked up a small packet of old photos by the Brighton seafront, perhaps near the Palace Pier or North Laine, please tell me via the site so I can start to fix these memories.

Lost: Equipment for Various Sports in Brighton

I realized around 7:15 p.m. on Sunday that my Equipment for Various Sports had vanished from the bench outside the Royal Pavilion Gardens, near the seafront in Brighton. The bag held a tennis racket, a cricket bat, a pair of trainers, and a few other items I use for weekend games. I felt a lump in my throat at the thought of losing them, since they’re part of my routine and training. If someone picked them up and kept them safe, I’d be grateful to be reunited through the site.

Found microwaves near Brighton Pier.

I was walking along Madeira Drive by the Brighton i360 at about 7:30 pm yesterday when I spotted two microwaves stacked in a bright blue crate by a wooden bench on the seafront. The power cords were tangled, and a white sticker on the back read 'Microwave 800W.' There wasn't anyone nearby, so I picked them up and brought them here to help the owner get them back. I know how easy it is to forget a kitchen gadget in the bustle of a day out in Brighton, and I felt relieved to do the right thing. I hope this helps someone recognize their gear and claim it soon.

Found GPS device on Brighton seafront near Palace Pier

I found a GPS device on the Brighton seafront near the Palace Pier at about 11:15 this morning. It was half-buried in the pebbles beside a blue puffer jacket, the screen flickering with a map and a contact sticker that reads 'Alex.' I picked it up, wiped off the salt spray, and checked the only visible label—a pink wrist strap with a name partial. It looks clearly used for outdoor biking or running. I left it with the lifeguard hut for safety, hoping the owner will spot this listing and claim it. It would mean a lot to them to have it back, given all the times it logged on routes along the coast.
