UPDATE: The Electric Picnic rucksack has been reunited with its owner

A case of mistaken identity.

Updated 2pm

THIS MORNING RACHEL Collins got on the number 7 bus heading into town on the first leg of her journey down to Stradbally for Electric Picnic.

She got on the bus with her rucksack…. but she got off on O’Connell St with someone else’s.

Twitter, HELP! A lady called Yumiko took my @EPfestival rucksack off No7 @dublinbusnews at 9.15am. This is her bag pic.twitter.com/UE6ZwEipnJ

And it seems her appeal worked, because she has met up with Yumiko and been reunited with her rucksack.

It seems that Yumiko was bound for Dublin Airport. Rachel managed to track her down and with the help of Aer Lingus there was a happy ending:

All's well that ends well... Although I'm not sure how Yumiko mixed these two bags up! pic.twitter.com/fTKk6RXyUG
