Bag return related luck

Hi all - like a stupid fool i left my bag on the train today - containing amongst other things my soon to expire passport - arrrgggh fuck was the thought that leaped to my mind when i found out what i had done.

anyhoo - i've reported it missing - hopefully meaning that the police won't blow it up as a suspect package but i still need your help sending out good vibes, magic and other stuff to help it get reported to lost property instead of being stolen.

please help - there are some clothes in there i want back too

Well, you've done all the right things. I suspect that you'll get it back without too many problems but just in case there are bag-return vibes heading your way.

Tell me your blue and white shirt wasn't in there? My fingers are so, so, crossed about the passport.

I think you'll be fine dude many people here at work have done the same thing and they've always got their stuff back. Vibes anyway....

Bags of luck, I'm sure it will be loyal and return to you like the pets in that film Incredible Journey, with an enigmatic smile on it's zipper at the things it's seen.

Oh horrible horrible, sleaze! good luck 'n' vibes (I lost a bag containing all my new zines, all my favourite clothes & all the jewellery I owned that I wasn't actually wearing, on the way back from a sci-fi convention in February, but that never returned to me so maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it... good luck anyway).

Good luck, sleaze. My sister once left her clarinet on the bus, and she got that back (and you know how expensive musical instruments are, so it probably *would've* been quite a good thing for someone to nick), so I reckon it'll be ok.

sorry dude, that is absolutely infuriating (happened to me not so long ago). I will do something vibe-related asap. Oh and I definately shouldn't mention this but my friend Ant had his bag blown up on the way to school once when he left it at the bus stop. His geography books looked sooo cool with holes blown right through them, kinda like Burroughs' shotgun art in a way. (The police, you see, were terribly sorry about what they'd done and for some reason felt the need to actually return the bag after they'd blown it all to hell.)

Wanking as I type to charge up a bag-return sigil. Poor sleazy man. You are so good at taking care of other people's bags for them too. Didn't have your mac in it?

If it gets desperate before you leave the country, remember you can get a new passport in 24 hours from the office in Chelsea but you have to phone for an appointment and it costs £70+.

no the hawaian shirt and the mac are both safe

its just some of my more lurid shirts and the power cable that make my mac work that i'm missing...

so where should you report passport losses to?

May find this site of use but I'm sure you thought of that yourself, dome-brained one.

Of course, if you send me some naked polaroids and a tenner I will make you a genuine authentic passport from my old one and a stick of Pritt. In fact, forget the tenner, you're a mate. Sorry, shouldn't be so flippant when you are in evident distress. (((VIRTUAL HUG)))

Any luck so far, sleaze? Losing stuff is horrible, and I hope it all turns up soon.

success! The bag was recovered at fenchurch st and now resides in south end at the lost property office-

which is just as well cos i now discover that the power cable that was in there would cost £60 to replace...

Hurrah! Good and loyal bag, well done!

A £60 power cable for a raincoat?

Dude, that's steep.

its a very special raincoat...

Ariadne

Oh! This is astonishingly good news and has quite made my evening. Hurray for sleaze's power cable! Err, that sounds a bit rude.

Hooray! That's the first time EVER that the things I think about in mid-wank have come true! Perhaps Johnny Depp will phone me tomorrow after all to check my availability for Suzie Krueger's new private member's fetish club (because Vanessa's so shit in the sack).

Glad you have your bag back, sleazeboy.
