IS YOURS AMONG THE 40 COATS LEFT AT BRIGG PUB?

A Brigg pub's collection of lost property suggests there are many hardy souls in the town in this era of the so-called Snowflake Generation.
The Dying Gladiator has FORTY coats that customers have left behind over many months after visiting the uniquely-named Bigby Street hostelry and its adjoining Stables Bar.
In some cases the owners must have made a coat-less and cold walk home.
The Glad's management has taken to social media to ask those people who left the premises minus their coats or jackets to call in, look through the lost property collection and hopefully reclaim their garments - a few of which we've pictured here.
A deadline has been set - Thursday, January 2, 2020.
After that the intention is to donate items of unclaimed clothing to a charity for the homeless, where they will be put to good use in a worthy cause.
The Dying Gladiator's online post on this topic has generated many comments.
The post interested some young men and women who have lost coats or jackets - leather, fur and even Barbour examples being mentioned in replies, just in case they may be in the pub's storage area.
Judging by this, the descriptive term 'Snowflake Generation' does not apply in Brigg.
This term refers to people born in the latter years of the 20th century who are said to be less resilient than those of earlier generations.
Walking home in Brigg on a cold night, without a coat, certainly makes you resilient in our book!
