I lost my silver bracelet yesterday around 4pm near the Mercury Theatre on the High Street in Colchester, Essex. It's a slim sterling-silver piece with a tiny turquoise bead near the clasp and a heart charm engraved with the initial 'L' on the back. The bracelet is a bit scratched from daily wear, but the clasp still works and it sits comfortably on the wrist. It has sentimental value—it was a gift from my grandmother who passed away last year. If anyone found it, send me a message and we can sort out a pickup.
I appeared to have misplaced my blue asthma inhaler while walking my dog near the park in Essex yesterday. I remember using it while sitting on a bench and I think I might have left it there. It's quite important for me to find it, so if anyone happens to see it, please get in touch!
I lost my black tuxedo jacket while attending a wedding at the Essex Manor last Saturday. I believe I might have left it in the coat check area, but I'm not entirely sure. The jacket is a slim fit and has a satin lapel. It's quite special to me, as it was a gift from my parents for my first formal event. If anyone finds it, I'd really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my rare vintage comic book, a first edition of 'The Amazing Spider-Man', while I was at a coffee shop in Essex last Friday. It's in fair condition with some visible wear and has sentimental value to me. If anyone finds it, please reach out!
I lost my favorite pair of black Nike running shoes while jogging in the park near Essex last Saturday. They have a distinctive white swoosh and a bit of mud on the soles. I believe I dropped them near the bench by the pond after taking a break. If anyone finds them, I would really appreciate it if you could reach out!
Found a blue nylon dog harness this afternoon around 4pm outside the Tesco Express on High Street, Colchester, Essex. It's a size medium with a bright reflective strip along the back, orange piping, and a small pink paw-print patch on the chest strap. The fabric is clean, with a tiny fray on the edge from daily walks. It doesn't have an ID tag, so no owner details, but I know how stressful it is to misplace a pet's stuff—hope to reunite it with its owner. If this is yours, drop me a note here with a description of your dog's name or other distinguishing mark, and we can arrange a pickup nearby.
I found a red Hohner Special 20 harmonica this morning around 9:15am in a blue zippered pouch, lying on the pavement near Castle Park by the High Street entrance in Colchester, Essex. The harmonica is used but in decent shape, with a few surface scratches and a tiny dent near hole 6; the red plastic comb is visible, and the pouch has a white star embroidery and a zipper pull engraved with the initials AM. It probably belongs to someone who busked or practiced here, and it feels sentimental because it might have been a gift or a memory from a gig. If this sounds like yours, message me and we can arrange a quick pickup near Colchester town centre.
I found a white iPad with a blue silicone case this afternoon around 2:15 pm outside the Tesco on High Street in Chelmsford, Essex. The screen is clean and bright, with just a tiny crack along the bottom left corner and a faint scratch near the home button. The wallpaper shows a cheerful dog photo, and the case has a small dent near the bottom edge—easy to spot if you know your device well. I'm keeping it safe and hoping to reunite it with its owner soon since it likely holds personal photos or notes. If it's yours, tell me a detail only you'd know, and I'll arrange a quick handover.
I found a vintage silver flute while walking in the park near my home in Essex last weekend. It was just lying on a bench and has no case or identifying information. It seems well-cared for and is in perfect condition, but I’m worried someone is missing it and would love to return it to its owner.
I found a pair of black leather ankle boots near the playground in Essex Park on Sunday afternoon. They look brand new and haven't been worn much. If you're missing them, please describe them for verification.
