Lillian Lund Jacobsen (66) had an aha experience in the fine winter weather in the middle of the day on Monday when she went for a walk on her home grounds at the maritime town of Langesund on the Telemark coast.
– I came out of a path in the forest and onto the popular light trail that starts a few minutes from the city centre. And there, in the middle of the shiny ice, lay a tooth gaping at me, she tells Dagbladet the following day.
The big question: Who has lost their teeth and is “naked” in the mouth?
The provisional main character in the denture mystery in Langesund has received many reactions after she told about the rare ski track find on The Facebook page “We who love Langesund” and newspaper The cairn caught up on the “lost and found” case on Monday evening.
But the question remains who is the rightful owner of the rather well-maintained spare teeth. The lower jaw, the finder believes.
– Bite off you
– There has been a lot of pleasant feedback that it is good that I have taken care of the dog and am trying to find the owner. And then there are some funny ones too. Like “now you have something to chew on”, laughs Lillian Lund Jacobsen.
She is known for performances in humor and entertainment in Langesund and her home municipality of Bamble.
And she is known as third best in the 2010 edition of the TV 2 series “Farmen”.
But most of all as a health worker and carer in the home service in Bamble. And now as head of the Red Cross’ visitor service in Bamble. Plus as a support contact.
– The way the talk goes among many of Langesund’s 5,000 inhabitants, is there someone who has lost the whole set of teeth in their jaw?
– I hope so! But there are many others who also go for walks, especially at weekends. People from the rest of Bamble and from Porsgrunn and Skien often park at the nursing home in Sundby and walk from there.
NOK 10,000
This yo-yo winter, Langesund’s light trail has alternated between being a ski trail and a walking trail.
– On Monday, the ice was mirror-smooth and steep where the gizzard was. A few days ago there was snow and skiing in the same place. Some may have fallen and lost their teeth and never found them again.
Says she who found the dentures.
A denture for an entire jaw costs on average NOK 10,000, a look at the websites of Norwegian suppliers shows.
