According to the Liverpool Echo, the eight weirdest things to be found on the buses in Liverpool are:

• musical Instruments
• prosthetic limbs
• walking frames
• children in plans
• dogs
• live ferrets
• glass eyes
• handcuffs

Katie Braithwaite, a student from LJMU said: “I was on my way to a 9am lecture when I turned and found a pair of handcuffs on the seat next to me. It looked like someone had a good night”.

University of Liverpool student, Shannon Hart said: “I found a walking stick. The man had used it to get on the bus so I wasn’t sure how he forgot it. By the time the bus had set off again I realised it was still leaning on the railing”.

Arriva are now asking customers to alert the arriva team to lost or found items by using the hashtag #findmearriva on facebook and twitter in order to get the property back to the owners in a quick and efficient way.
