Lost: Travel adapters in central Edinburgh

On Tuesday at 4:20 PM, I last had my travel adapters while strolling down Princes Street in Edinburgh, near the Scott Monument. I must have left them on a bench by the Waverley Station tram stop as I checked a map, and they disappeared into the crowd. They’re small but essential for my trip, and I’m feeling stranded without them. If you’ve seen them, please reach out through the site so I can get back on the road.

Ray-Ban tortoiseshell glasses, lost on Princes Street

I lost my Ray-Ban tortoiseshell glasses yesterday around 3pm near the Scott Monument on Princes Street. They're the classic metal-frame style with brown tortoiseshell corners and a noticeable scuff on the left temple; one lens has a tiny speck that can barely be seen in bright light. There's a small engraving on the inside of the right arm, initials 'PK', and they came with a black leather flip-case that has a dent in the corner. They're my go-to pair for work and reading, and I really need them back; I can't drive or read signs clearly without them. If you found them, you can drop them off at the Lost & Found desk near Waverley Station.

Silver Yamaha flute lost near Princes Street Gardens

I lost my silver Yamaha flute yesterday around 3pm outside the Scott Monument on Princes Street Gardens in Edinburgh. It's a standard student model with a small dent on the foot joint and a scratch along the lip plate. The case is black with a red lining, and there's a tiny sticker on the zipper with a local youth orchestra logo. It means a lot to me—my late aunt gave it to me, and I really need it back so I can keep practicing and auditioning.

Cream duvet cover with blue piping, lost near Scott Monument

I lost my cream duvet cover with blue piping yesterday around 3pm near the Scott Monument in Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh. It’s a king-size, 100% cotton cover with a soft waffle texture and a tiny snag along the bottom seam. There’s a faint coffee stain on the back, easy to spot if you peek inside. It’s sentimental to me because it was a gift from my mum, and I’d really appreciate getting it back.

Black metronome with white dial

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.
