I lost my black Labrador mix named Scout yesterday around 3pm near the Covered Market on Broad Street in Oxford. Scout is about 60 pounds with a short black coat and a white patch on his chest. He wears a bright red collar and a blue name tag that says 'Scout'; there's a small scar on his right ear from a toy incident last year. He can be a little wary of strangers but he's friendly and loves treats. Our family is really worried—Scout means the world to us and I really need him back.
I lost my blue Contigo travel mug yesterday around 4:15pm near the Covered Market on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. It's a 16-ounce stainless steel mug with a matte blue finish, a black lid, and a red button you press to open. On the bottom there's a small white octopus sticker I stuck there myself, plus a faint coffee ring stain around the rim from daily use. It’s a little scuffed from being banged around in my bag, but it still keeps heat surprisingly well. This mug is sentimental because it was a gift from my aunt overseas, and I really need it back. If you’ve seen it, please message me—I’ll swing by the Market or the university library to pick it up.
I lost my set of keys yesterday around 5:30pm after I left the bus stop at Queen Street by the Covered Market on Cornmarket Street in Oxford. It's a standard brass Yale house key on a bright red silicone keyring, with a small silver USB drive and a tiny enamel penguin charm attached. There are about six keys in total, and one key has the initials 'AH' engraved on the head. The whole thing is a bit worn and has a few scratches. This set opens my flat, mailbox, and bike lock, so it's really stressing me out to be without them. If anyone found them, please get in touch—I’d be forever grateful to get them back.
I lost my iPhone 12 in Oxford yesterday around 3pm. It's a 64GB space gray phone, with a pink silicone case and a small scratch along the bottom edge; the back has a faint coffee smudge, plus there's a penguin sticker near the camera I stuck on last month. I think I left it on a bench outside the Covered Market on Broad Street, near the entrance to the Oxford City Bus stop. The screen is cracked from a fall last week, but it still works. It means a lot to me—it's a gift from my sister—and I really need it back. If you found it, please message me; I’d be forever grateful.
I lost my red knit scarf yesterday around 3pm outside Blackwell's on Broad Street in Oxford. It's a thick wool scarf, about 180 cm long, with a white snowflake pattern woven in and a small snag along the left edge. On the inside corner, my grandmother's initials 'M.S.' are embroidered in black thread—easy to spot if you know me. It's a winter-seasonal item that I wore all season, and it has sentimental value because it was a gift from my grandma who passed away. If anyone found it, please reach out—I'd be so grateful to get it back.
I found a pair of gray Nike running shoes this afternoon around 1:45pm outside Blackwell's on Broad Street in Oxford. They're UK size 9, with white soles and a bright neon-green heel tab on the left shoe. One lace is slightly frayed and there’s a tiny red stain on the sole near the toe. I picked them up off the pavement behind a planter near the entrance after someone nearby pointed to them. If the owner recognizes these features, please reach out—we'd love to get them back; they look well-worn and obviously meaningful.
I found a black satin evening gown this afternoon around 2:15pm, lying over a bench outside Blackwell's on Broad Street, Oxford. It's a Calvin Klein collection piece, size UK 12, in good condition with a delicate silver brooch at the waist and a subtle crystal detailing along the neckline. The gown has a soft but sturdy feel and a navy-blue satin lining peeking from the slit at the back. One unique feature is a small fern-shaped pin attached to the inside of the bodice tag, with a faint perfume scent from last night. I'm hoping to get it back to its owner soon; happy to help return it through the app.
I found this red knitted scarf this afternoon around 3:15pm near the entrance to Carfax, right by the Oxford Covered Market. It's a thick, chunky knit in bright cherry red with black fringe at the ends. There’s a small brown leather tag stitched inside with the initials 'A.J.' and the label 'Acorn & Co.' I noticed a faint coffee stain on the inner edge and one corner is a little pilly, but it's in decent condition overall. If you think it's yours, message me here and we can arrange a safe handover near the Oxford Playhouse or on High Street later this week.
I found a guinea pig this afternoon around 4:15pm wandering near the entrance to Oxford's Covered Market on Market Street. It's a small, healthy-looking animal with tan and white fur and a blue bell on a red collar, plus a distinctive white heart-shaped patch on its left shoulder. It seemed a bit skittish but quickly settled after a passerby offered a leafy snack. I’d love to reunite it with its owner—if this is yours, describe the collar and patch to help confirm.
I found a navy Barbour-style parka this morning around 9:15am outside Blackwell's on Broad Street, Oxford. It's a medium size, waxed navy fabric with a brass zip and a faux fur hood, and the interior has a distinctive red tartan lining. One identifying feature is the brass fox-head zipper pull on the left chest pocket and a small orange tag near the bottom hem. There's a bit of wear around the cuffs, but overall it's in good condition. If this jacket belongs to you, I'm happy to arrange a quick meetup nearby or drop it off at the Covered Market.
