Life in Beckworth » Jesus Sandal http://visitbeckworth.co.uk/life-in-beckworth Bringing you the (almost) everyday comings and goings of the residents of Beckworth, a typical English market town. Informing you about their lives through the mediums of words, images, an interactive map and stereophonic sound recordings Sun, 01 Feb 2026 00:56:14 +0000 en-US hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 Sandal Owner Found http://visitbeckworth.co.uk/life-in-beckworth/pc-robert-cowgrove/sandal-owner-found/ http://visitbeckworth.co.uk/life-in-beckworth/pc-robert-cowgrove/sandal-owner-found/#comments Thu, 09 May 2013 09:36:15 +0000 a resident of Beckworth http://visitbeckworth.co.uk/life-in-beckworth/?p=492 Continue reading →]]> Just to let you know Beckworth detectives have now found the owner of the unisex Jesus sandal alive and well. The footwear was handed into police earlier this week and has since been claimed by local shop owner, and morris dancer, Mr C. Pinner. For those of you following the case the blood stain on the shoe turned out to be spilt paint, not coffee as stupidly suggested by another officer at the station. So we can now rule out Jesus and his followers from our enquiries about found brass instruments. Thankyou PC R. Cowgrove

Note worthy for their apparent non-connection (to the untrained-mind) are a silver euphonium and a single unisex sandal, a bit like the sort Christians wear, with socks. The sandal is stained with blood, or it has been suggested by an inexperienced colleague as a coffee stain (but I think we can dismiss that theory). The large and heavy euphonium has been engraved with distinctive girly-swirly patterns (like leaves) and over-the-top lettering with the name Henry.

Do you know a large unisex brass instrument player (of either gendre) who dresses like a sock-wearing Jesus and is hobbling around town with footwear missing? Do they have a euphonium they’ve named Henry and which they have absent-mindedly mislaid?

If so, we’d like to hear from you… Maybe Henry’s rightful owner is offering a no-questions asked cash reward for it’s safe return? Please ring 999 and ask for PC R Cowgrove at Beckworth Police station, who is a dab hand hand with lost and found. (By the way, we’re still waiting to hear from the owners of three trumpets and a flugelhorn). PC R Cowgrove
