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.
Blue Makita 12V drill in blue case found near Grassmarket
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.

I found a navy blue hoodie this afternoon around 3pm near the Grassmarket in Edinburgh, outside the Old Town Coffee Shop on Victoria Street. It's a size M, brand H&M, with a small red star patch on the chest and a faint coffee stain along the cuff. The fabric is soft but a bit worn, with the cuffs slightly stretched, and it felt like something someone would wear daily—kind of sentimental. I felt relief at finding a piece that could be meaningful to its owner, and if this is yours, drop me a DM and we can sort something out.
Burgundy passport with biometric page
I lost my burgundy UK passport yesterday around 3pm near the Scott Monument on Princes Street in Edinburgh.

If anyone found it, I’d be so grateful to arrange a safe return; I can collect from Waverley Station or meet in a central spot.
Found green parrot with orange beak near Grassmarket
I found a small green parrot this afternoon around 2:15pm outside a cafe on Victoria Street, near the Grassmarket in Edinburgh. It's about the size of a large robin, with a bright orange beak and a few blue-tinted tips on the tail feathers. It wears a blue leg band with the code ED-23 and has a slightly ruffled look, like it's been out in the drizzle. It perched on my sleeve for a minute before hopping onto a nearby railing and looking around. I'm hoping to reunite it with its owner—if you recognize this bird, message me here with the leg band code and where you last saw it; we can arrange a safe meet-up in Edinburgh to return it.

Crested gecko — lime green with orange specks
Yesterday around 3pm I realized my crested gecko was missing from its terrarium after I got home from work. It’s a small gecko, about 5 inches long, lime green with orange speckles and a dark eye stripe; the tail has a tiny kink and there’s a white dot on its left hind toe. I last saw it near the Grassmarket, outside a cafe on Victoria Street, but it could have slipped toward Greyfriars Bobby area if a passerby startled it.

If you found it, please drop a note here or message me—I'm hoping it's still intact and not missing a wheel!

If anyone found it, please let me know—I’d be so grateful to get it back.

There's a blue plastic leg band on the right leg with the digits 04-BG. It seemed healthy, chirping softly, and looked like a pet rather than a wild bird.

Bearded dragon, sandy orange, blue eyes, lost
I lost my bearded dragon, Mango, yesterday around 6pm. He's about 10 inches from snout to tail, sandy orange with irregular brown bands along his back. He's kept in a small Exo Terra terrarium with a Zoo Med UVB lamp and a heat mat. Last seen around the Grassmarket area in Edinburgh, near the corner shop on West Port, slipping under a parked car and disappearing. He has a faint diagonal scar on his left hip from a shed, and a small white dot near his eyebrow scale that helps me identify him. I'm really worried—he's friendly but shy, and I'd love to have him back home.
Bearded dragon in terrarium with heat lamp
I found a bearded dragon this afternoon around 2:15pm, inside a small glass terrarium with a heat lamp, sitting on a bench near the Scott Monument on Princes Street in Edinburgh. It’s about 8 inches long from snout to tail, sandy brown with darker crossbands and a bright orange beard that shows when it’s curious. The terrarium lid has a blue sticker reading 'Milo' and there’s a tiny notch on the left tail scale. It seemed well-fed and calm, so I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner soon—pets like this mean a lot to people. If this is yours, send me a message here and we can work out a safe handover.
Found blue velvet armchair with brass legs
I found a mid-century blue velvet armchair with brass legs this afternoon around 3:45 pm, propped against the wall outside the Cameo cinema on Lothian Road, Edinburgh. The chair is in decent condition overall; the upholstery is a rich cobalt blue with a few light snags and a circular coffee-ring stain on the seat. The brass legs have a brushed finish and one leg has a tiny dent near the crossbar, which is pretty distinctive. On the underside of the seat there’s a faded fabric tag that reads something like 'Mira'—could be a clue for the owner. I figured someone might be missing this and would really like to see it go to a good home; if it belongs to you, I’m happy to arrange a swap or drop-off.
Silver ring with emerald chip found near Scott Monument
I found a sterling silver ring this morning around 10:15am on Princes Street Gardens, near the Scott Monument. It's a slim, polished 6mm band with a tiny emerald chip set in a clean bezel, and two tiny star engravings on the inner edge. The ring looks slightly worn, as if it's traveled a bit, but it still catches the light nicely. If this belongs to someone, I would love to reunite it with them—we can meet somewhere in Edinburgh to hand it back.
Blue Trek hybrid bike with city crest sticker
I lost my blue Trek hybrid bike yesterday around 3pm. It was on Bruntsfield Place by The Meadows in Edinburgh as I paused to grab a quick coffee. The frame is blue with a small white Edinburgh city crest sticker on the seat tube, and there’s a tiny dent on the left crank arm. It has a black saddle, a front white light that blinks, and yellow reflective pedals. It was a gift from my sister, so it feels really sentimental, and I’d really appreciate getting it back if anyone saw it.
Vintage Edinburgh coin collection in tin
I found a small navy blue tin with a brass crest on the lid, lying on the cobbles outside a tiny antique shop on Victoria Street near Grassmarket, this afternoon. The tin is about 8x5 cm and the corner has a light dent. Inside there are about a dozen coins in clear sleeves—mostly copper with a few silver-toned pieces—from roughly 1900s to 1950s. A couple show a green patina, and one coin has a noticeable scratch across the portrait that makes it stand out. It clearly looked like a personal collection rather than random loose coins. If this belongs to someone, I’d love to help reunite you with it.
