Sorry to hear it's lost, what a pain. Last time I flew back from SA I had bought this lovely giraffee made of raffia (sp). My brother in law duly wrapped him in bubble wrap and made a box for him. Got to Heathrow, no Giraffe. Strangely I had a good sense of humour after a bit of a nightmare flight. Went to lost property to enquire about him ... saying I was worried he would get hungry ... needless to say the bloke behind the counter had absolutely no sense of humour :crylol: He ( the giraffe) arrived on my doorstep three days later and has pride in my lounge!
