lost keys/usb stick and oyster card on 185 bus

My son managed to lose his bike and locker keys/usb stick and oystercard on the top of the 185 at about 5pm - heading from dulwich to victoria- any ideas where to go and try and find them?? iseem to remember a post about this some time ago.

We had a similar problem a few months ago. We googled to find out the bus garage for that particular bus route, then phoned them straight away. They told us to call back at a time when all the buses would have returned for the day, which we did. Eventually the lost stuff was found, and we went in to collect it. They told us they keep lost property for a couple of days only, then it is sent to a central LT lost property office. So if you can get in quickly, you may retrieve your things before they're sent away. We found the staff very helpful, and we were very relieved to get the stuff back (it was my daughter's GCSE art coursework - priceless!) Good luck!

What a drag. Might be worth ringing them again though - they told us things don't always turn up straight away. Or leave them your tel.no, in case - expect you've done that. But I suppose things worth stealing, like your son's, might just get stolen, sadly. Yes, teenagers ... I'm told they grow out of it...
