If there is one person in Derry who is most likely to find lost items it's former SDLP MLA, Pat Ramsey.
We caught up with Pat this week and asked him to tell us about some of the most touching stories and weird items he has been asked to help out with - enjoy!
One woman asked Pat to find out which chapel Johnny McDaid and Courtney Cox were to be wed in so that she could gatecrash the celebrations and hopefully catch a glimpse of rumoured guest, Ed Sheeran.
Not once but twice... Useless to anyone else except their rightful owner and if lost you can't consume a sausage roll bap or a cream horn without them.
People have contacted Pat in the past asking them to publish a post detailing their field of expertise in the hope that he or she might find employment.
A very, very common request but thankfully countless children have been reunited with their beloved cuddly toys because of appeals put out over Facebook by, Pat.
A person with a sick relative who needed a bone marrow donor asked Pat to put out a public appeal on Facebook.
Not a pair of shoes but one lady's shoe - must have been a really special pair!
Parents from all over Derry and further afield have contacted Pat in their hour of need such are the enormous social media reach of Pat's public notice appeals.
It's no laughing matter if your beloved dog goes missing you will literally do anything to find him or her. Again, this is a very popular request put to Pat on a weekly basis.
Pat managed to pull off a cracking result last year when he reunited one man with 3,000 in cash he lost in Derry.
A local couple contacted Pat after the bride-to-be lost her engagement ring. The initial appeal was fruitless but remarkably the ring was found 14 months later and returned to the couple.
