I lost my blue Penguin Classics pocket paperback yesterday around 3pm. It's a small pocket-sized book, about A6, with a bright blue cover and a creased spine from years of use. The back cover has a faint coffee stain and a green ribbon bookmark with a tiny brass compass charm poking out. I was sitting outside Waterstones on Princes Street, near the tram stop, and wandered toward Waverley Station, but I must have dropped it somewhere along the sidewalk between the shop doorway and the Scott Monument steps. This book is sentimental to me; it was a gift from my grandmother, and I'd really love to get it back.
I lost my sunburst acoustic guitar yesterday around 3pm outside St Giles' Cathedral on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. It's a full-size dreadnought with a glossy sunburst finish, a small nick in the lower bout, and a frayed brown leather strap. The black hard case has a red plush lining, and there's a faded sticker on the inside that says 'Melody of the Meadows' from a busking gig last summer. This guitar means a lot to me; it's the one I learned on with my grandmother's old songs, so it's really sentimental and I could really use it back. If anyone spotted it or saw a guitar left behind in that area, please message me and I'll come collect it as soon as I can.
Yesterday around 3pm I lost a small black zip pouch that holds my glucose meter somewhere around Grassmarket in Edinburgh. The meter inside is white with a faint crack in the corner, and there's a red stripe along the pouch's zipper. It's essential for my daily monitoring, so I'm really worried about it and would like it back as soon as possible. If someone found it, dropping it off at the Grassmarket Information Centre or a nearby medical clinic would help a lot.
FedEx delivered my parcel to someone I don't know on Grange Road yesterday, 5th of May 2026 at around 11-12 am. It's a big box containing a bicycle frame from Wabi Cycles.
I lost a brown wallet at cowgate/grassmarket an the 03.05. at 04:00 am. There were cards (german id) and some cash (Euros) inside.
I found a small black Seiko metronome this afternoon around 3:15pm outside the Usher Hall on Lothian Road, Edinburgh. It's about 10 cm tall, with a glossy plastic shell and a white dial that sticks a bit when you turn the wheel. On the bottom there's a faded sticker with the initials 'ZA' and a tiny red dot sticker marked 'M1'—super distinctive if you spot it among a busker's gear. It still ticks when nudged, clearly used recently by someone who practices here. I know it probably belongs to a local musician or student, and I’d be glad to return it to its owner—please get in touch if this sounds like yours.
I found a red paperback mystery this afternoon around 2:45pm, lying on the pavement near the Scott Monument on Princes Street, Edinburgh. It’s a roughly 350-page thriller, paperback with a creased spine and a slightly faded red cover. Inside, there’s a blue ribbon bookmark with a tiny fox emblem peeking out from page 112, and a small coffee stain on the back cover. It looks well-loved, which is why I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner because it might be a favorite. If you recognize it, drop me a message and we can arrange a pickup.
I found a grey canvas tote bag this afternoon around 2:30pm, lying on the benches in Princes Street Gardens by the Waverley tram stop. It's about 12 by 14 inches, with a faint coffee stain on the front pocket and a blue striped lining that you can see when you open it. Inside there's a small notebook titled Edinburgh Sketchbook and a blue Celtic knot keychain clipped to the zipper. The bag looks used but intact; it seems important to someone and I’d love to get it back to its owner.
I found a navy blue North Face parka with a faux fur hood this afternoon around 3pm, left on the ground near the Scott Monument on Princes Street, just outside Waterstones. It's a size M and overall in decent condition, though there’s a small snag on one sleeve near the cuff and a couple of salt marks from the street. Inside the left chest pocket, there's a small white embroidery of the initials 'LJ' on the inner label. If you think this might be yours, drop me a message and we’ll arrange a pickup near there.
Found a blue Makita 12V cordless drill this morning around 9am in the Grassmarket area, outside the coffee shop on Victoria Street. It's in a slightly scuffed blue hard case with a black rubber grip and a red paint stripe on the battery. Inside the lid there's a sticker that reads 'Makita 12V DF330D' and there's a small initials sticker 'LM' on the case. The drill looks well-used but in good condition, and there's no charger attached. I figured someone might be missing it after finishing a shift at a nearby building site and would really like to return it. If you think it's yours, tell me the brand and the sticker initials to verify.
