Send us Your Lost, we Found Your Mind

20 January 2011 By Alan Straton

I have just added a section to MyPE that allows people to upload the details of their lost and found animals and other objects of affection (like children, minds and aging parents!).

The MyPE submission form can be found here: Lost and Found Submissions.

A recent submission to the Lost and Found can be found here: Lost in Framesby.

The secret to success to writing a lost and found submission is in making it ‘entertaining’, describing the animal / person / object correctly, letting the reader feel your pain and providing comprehensive contact details.

The submissions can be ‘tweeted’ commented on and ‘liked’ to your Twitter or Facebook account in order to increase exposure of your loss.

All that we ask is that you return to the article once you have FOUND your animal / person / object and let us know in the comments section.

The following two tabs change content below.

Alan Straton

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
