Can we help Eddie 75
Merchant Seaman ⚓️ start 2019 with a smile ...?
Eddie left an old black ruck sack on the number 75 bus to Halewood last
Saturday 22nd December 2018 1pm.
The bag contained his passport and discharge book.
The book contained over 40 years of his history at sea⚓️ from 1988.
Obviously he is very down because this book is priceless to him....
Both documents are of no value to anyone else......
Have you seen them ?
Can we get them back to him ?
Terry Flaherty
Eddie Bolton.

Hi Lew I imagine that they have already been in touch with local radio,you could mention contacting Pete Price Radio City or Roger Philips Radio Merseyside just in case they have not gone down that route.

Don't know Chris I was on FB and it mentioned it had been returned to him. I expect some passenger on the bus may have found it and passed it to the driver. As his passport was inside the bag as well so no doubt his address would have been traceable that way??
Eddie l got in touch with Tony Nelo in the Cassa to see if any one had handed your bag in, he said he would go down and have a look. He text me yesterday and said it was there. Made up for you. Enjoy the new year
