Lost CDs in central Oxford near Carfax Tower

I lost a small blue CD case this morning in central Oxford. At about 9:15 am I was leaving the Bodleian Library through Carfax when I realized the case wasn’t in my bag. Inside are about a dozen CDs—indie rock, a classical recital, and a college choir recording—kept in a faded blue sleeve with a green sticker. They’re sentimental, especially the recital CD from my dad’s university days. I wandered from Carfax Tower toward the Radcliffe Camera to retrace my steps, checking benches and the Covered Market area, but I couldn’t find it. If found, I hope someone can return it through the site.

Lost black personal bag with gold-like zip

When helping my disable husband to board ST2 bus at the stop Millway Close (in Mere Rd in Wolvercote Oxford) on June 18 at 13:09, I left behind on the pavement a black personal bag with a golden-like zip on the top. When returned to the place in about 20 minutes, the bag was not there any more. The bag contained a selection of plastic shopping bags and a black coffee mug with a special top with a small opening and a plastic straw. No valuables are in the bag, it just has a sentimental value because it was a gift.

Lost Driver's License in Oxford

Last Friday around 6:45 pm, I realized my driver's license was missing from my coat pocket after a stroll near the Oxford Covered Market. I retraced my steps along High Street toward Carfax Tower, but the square had already emptied and the breeze seemed to hide it. The license has my photo and address, and I have an appointment next week that relies on it. If you've found it, please message me through the site and we can arrange a pickup from a central point in Oxford.

Found a set of pins near Oxford Station today.

I was walking back from a seminar at Mansfield College when I spotted a tin of pins by the Oxford Station entrance around 3:40 pm today. A handful had spilled from a card, the enamel catching the light as the buses rumbled by. There was a red bus pin, a blue owl, and a tiny gold circle with a motto I couldn't quite read. I know how it feels to misplace something personal, so I picked them up and kept them safe, hoping the rightful owner spots this and recognizes them.

FOUND: Equipment for Various Sports near Oxford Covered Market

At 6:20 pm today, while I was leaving the Oxford Covered Market, I spotted a sports bag left on a bench near the entrance to Carfax. I checked inside and found Equipment for Various Sports—a tennis racket, a football, a jump rope, and a dusty pair of trainers—with chalk on the zipper and a gym towel tucked in the pocket. There was no name tag, just a faint hint of grass and sweat. It reminded me how easy it is to misplace something important after a busy day of errands, so I kept it safe and handed it to the staff at the Oxford University Sports Centre, hoping the owner would see this listing and claim it soon.

Black Samsung 32-inch smart TV with remote

I lost my black Samsung 32-inch smart TV yesterday around 3pm near the Covered Market on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. The TV is in good condition with no cracks, but there's a small dent on the bottom edge and a blue sticker on the back that reads 'Property of MK'. I rely on it for editing videos for my freelance gigs, so it's not just entertainment—it's essential for work and I really need it back. If you found it, please message me here so we can figure out the easiest way to arrange a return.
