NEWSTALK PRESENTER GEORGE Hook is having a good karma day, announcing on Twitter earlier that his credit cards and other items stolen from his car have been returned.
Earlier this month, his briefcase, which had his Apple laptop, his credit cards and driving licence inside, was stolen from his car. At the time, he had said the briefcase was his life and everything was on his laptop.
In a twist, this morning, some of the items appeared through his letterbox.
The return of the stolen items is a bit of a mystery. The sender left no note so Hook doesn’t know if it was the original thief who felt guilty and returned them, or some kind citizen who found them.
Either way, that’s faith restored in mankind, even just for today.

So George Hook finally remembered where he left his brief case…
He tells a good story though,
about how it got robbed, found and nothing taken……
Hook is a bore. Always manages to revolve whatever the topic of conversation on his show around himself or the ‘lovely’ Ingrid.
What an idiot for leaving his brief case where it could be stolen. Not the usual sambo and apple. I say the thief posted them back to him as using a card with name George Hook or a driving license would be a bit daft. No mention if the computer I’d have kept that !! It’s the age of information tech that he got his sh$t back anyway it was a good thing as it will shut the fu€Ker up for a while
Hooky gets lucky. I’m presuming it’s about as useful as an ice cube in the sahara as they are cancelled/replaced by now…
I would have thought an ice cube would be really useful in the desert. Providing both cooling and water where it is most badly needed.
:)
It would also be very entertaining to have ice cube with you in the sahara
It’s an old gift grub one from George describing the Irish line out.
My house was robbed a year ago, with car keys from house used to steal my car. Had also taken wifes credit cards which were cancelled quickly.
A good samaritan found cards on road the other side of dublin and handed them in to local Garda station.
As a result, the Gardai were able to home in on my abandoned car (no damage) and return it to me.
So thanks to the (anonymous) person who handed in our cards. They were useless except for the fact that it helped us locate and get our car back before it got burnt out or used in an armed robbery.
Hook comes on.Radio goes off.That voice!! Condescending aul’ shite.
When I played for Greystones in 1878, there was none of this modern malarkey….
If somebody could find his b@lls could they please return them.
Craig Breen also had his erc watch stolen from car over the weekend. Im hoping this will also be returned.
Someone stole Hook’s marbles too but they didnt give them back.
have your say
