Left my jacket in the GyPO

Fionn MacCool

Went in there at 10pm on Wednesday after the match, absolutely steaming. Put my coat in the cloak room and only remembered about it on Friday. I couldn't find the ticket and I went into the Drum Friday eve and asked the guy about it. He checked the book and couldn't find it noted down (it was a navy Munster jacket), however there was a 'navy NZ Canterbury coat' so I asked him to check just in case (the Muntster coat had a Canterbury logo on the left) but he came back and said it wasn't the one.

I assumed that some chancer had found my dropped ticket and gone and claimed it as theirs, but then on Saturday I found the ticket in my wallet O_o
Did the guy in the Drum think I might have been lying about it being mine as I didn't have a ticket, or did one of the pikeys working in the GPO make off with my coat?

I presume there's some small print saying they're not responsible for my belongings despite me paying for them to hang it on a ****ing rail :mad:

the whole year inn

Well I doubt they care about one jacket (especially a Munster one no offence).There is plenty of so called knackes that will chance there arm in there.

TBH I find the staff sound in there and never had a problem with them in the 5 years I have been in Galway and I would not think they steal a jacket.

Go back and ask to see that jacket that you think is yours, and don't post on a public forum claiming staff robbed off you ,calling them names(pikeys) like that is a disgrace,if I worked there I would find this a MASSIVE insult!!

Why are you mad at them when YOU cant even collect your own jacket,you say you forget about it for two days then claim the staff robbed it seriously get a grip!

If I worked there I would ask for this thread to be deleted

Well, if they didn't rob it where is it? If the OP goes back with his ticket now and they dont have it has obviously been robbed, either that or it got up and walked out itself.

the whole year inn

cL0h well if some one called me a theif or a pikey I would find it a major insult dont you and since you cant single one person out your calling everyone in there a thief.

Anyway I dont work but Id say what happened is some one blagged his way and has his jacket.

Headline: "Drunk boardsie looses jacket in club, blames staff and knackers"

As Sherifu said, try going back this afternoon and see if it's still there.

Afaik you paid for them to hold your jacket, they are supposed to hold onto them for 8 weeks until a point which they give them to s.v.d.p / trocaire etc.
If you still have the ticket and the jacket is not there they have to pay for the jacket (so long as you still have the ticket, or its not one from somewhere else) because they obviously gave the wrong jacket to someone or had it stolen. Either way its not your fault.

Fionn MacCool

haha gob_smacked you definitely lived up to your username, chillax big chap I was only joking - I like the GPO

3greenrizla's

I like the GYPO, don't think I have ever had a bad night there, why not have a boards beers there sometime (not that I've ever been to one)

tristanc

Have ya gone back with the ticket yet and seen what they said? God knows how many "I think I left my jacket here several days ago but I don't have my ticket" people they get every week.

As for board's beers there - I think a good number of boardies are over 18

Fionn MacCool

I like it on Monday, although I rarely go out then, as it's full of people I know (Corrib Village >_>). Wednesday's are class because of the music (it's impossible to look silly dancing to 80s music and you know it). Thursdays I'd rather Cuba though.

Everyone says it's a kip, and I see their point, but I think secrelty that's why I love it - not poncy and up its own arse like CPs et al

DRakE

too drunk to remember a jacket = too stupid to own a jacket.

GPO is great on a Wednesday night for 80's night.

Also the guy there probably thought you were a chancer and wanting a new jacket. You don't have to be a knacker to take a jacket! Go back there with your ticket, explain your predicament and see what can be done.

Fey!

OP: Put the ticket in the cloakroom Wednesday, go back for it without a ticket on Friday and get fobbed off, then put it up on the net at 1:57 on Monday morning, presumably after a feed of pints, having found the ticket but not gone back with it. Then post 2 more times but completely ignore the point of your own thread in the 2 posts.

I want to hear what happened when you went back with your ticket, with a reply from the GPO!

Hi,
Your jacket may have been handed out to the wrong person by mistake, and clubs are legally obliged to old on to belongings that have been paid into the cloakroom for a minimum of 8 weeks.
If you still have your ticket, and your jacket was given out accidentally then the GPO will have to replace the price of your item.
You can email the GPO's General Manager (and all round nice guy) Alex here:<<alex@gpo.ie>>
They can & will check CCTV footage...

Fionn MacCool

Cheerds bud! I sent him an email just now with the description of the coat and the ticket details etc.

The real mystery however, is why I was in the GPO at 10:11pm?! Is the club even open that early, or has the ticket machine just not been put forward +1 hour?

gd1987

I left my jacket in there before, got so drunk I forgot about it. Couldn't find my ticket either so didn't bother. Then by chance i was in there about two months later and found a cloakroom ticket in my wallet, my jacket was still there the whole time!

Tried to leave it there till I was going home, nope your one made me pay again:rolleyes:

i put my new cardigan in to the "safe" hands of the girls in cuba nightclub...trust me i wasnt drunk...as i left about an hour later but i mustve dropped my ticket in the toilet or sumthin-I know carelessness but easily done-anyway I knew they'd be quite ****ty to me as I know one of the girls-friend of a friend,but they refused to give me my cardigan and said it was policy-even though it was right in front of me on the rail-I asked the bouncer again to check for me,he was a friend of my work friend but they sed they didnt have the cardigan in the cloak room-the girl accused me of being drunk-I wasnt drinking as I had work at 6.30 in the hospital the next morning....a week later,I was in the kings head with the friend of a friend that knew the girl in the cloak room-the bitch was wearing my 109 e cardigan from topshop and smiled at me.....I hope she freezes her ass off wherever she is now...bitch!

Hi,
If you're 100% certain that it was your cardie (you bought it in Topshop, could be many exactly the same around the town) then you should mail <<jason@cuba.ie>> and explain your case.
If the doorman admitted to you that it was stolen, then you should reference him when sending the mail.
Regards,
Dr. V

Also, as someone who works in that premises quite regularly, I'd be very surprised if that was the case. It just wouldn't be tolerated, and I'd vouch for any staff member.

Like has been stated before; Topshop probably have loads of the same cardigan. Meaning other people will have the same one. It would probably be a good idea to have evidence before making wild accusations. I have always found the staff of Cuba to be really good, especially the cloakroom attendants.

If you lose your ticket, that is your own problem. And I am glad the staff didn't help you just because you were a friend of a friend.

Hi,

As a employee of cuba nightclub i find your post disturbing. If you can tell me the date you allege this happens i can make sure the cameras are checked straight away to back up your claim. i work full time in cuba and can vouch for the staff.the fact you lost the ticket is not our fault. It is not the policy of the club to give out jackets to anyone that comes up claiming that they have lost his or her jacket.as you can probably apprecaite we get loads of people up to the girls in the cloakroom chancing there arm about lost jackets.

Also accusing the girl from the cloakroom of wearing said jacket in the kingshead a short time after is a very serious accusation as some previous posters have said it is hardly a once off cardigan you have considering it was bought in topshop.

Finally as i said if you can provide the time and the date of when you alledge this happened i will be more than happy to check our camera.

Regards,

bill murray

But have you got definitive proof that this happened the way you said it did.

And by the way, don't start talking irish to me. Kindly translate what you said to me.

What proof have you got though? So far the only proof you have presented us with is that you saw a girl who you don't like wearing a cardigan similar to yours. Answer this question: is it so implausible that she might have had the same one?

Now, I'm not stating it wasn't the way you said it was. The only point I'm making is you shouldn't make accusations against people without concrete evidence.

i explained previously it was the girl who happened to share an apartment with her,who worked with me that told me all about her shenanigans...shes gone now,and my apologies to the current emplyees of cuba...I never sed they were like that.Im not accusing,Ive been told.Im sorry

bill murray

First of all who was undermining you? Judging by your reply you arent of legal age to be in a nightclub. You are making a very serious accuastion based on very little evidence.

read it properly dumbass-i didnt hear....the bouncer who i wont name told me she told him about the damn thing.....n he told me sed she took it now...end of...jebus!

I imagine it would be best that she does not reply and this thread be locked. This is rife with libel.
