When Alice Cowdrey set out for a leisurely stroll with her dog Sadie on the serene Tapuae Beach, located on the west coast of New Zealand's North Island, she expected nothing more than the usual tranquil experience. However, what she encountered that day was anything but ordinary. The local artist and her canine companion stumbled upon what appeared to be a headless, naked corpse lying on the sand, a sight that would send shivers down anyone's spine.

The beach, a place often associated with relaxation and the soothing sounds of waves, suddenly became the backdrop for what Cowdrey believed to be a grisly discovery. The figure was so convincing that it stopped her in her tracks. 'I just sort of froze, and felt sick,' Cowdrey recounted to Radio New Zealand. The figure's details were disturbingly realistic, with defined fingernails and toes that mimicked human anatomy to an unsettling degree.

While Sadie, Cowdrey's dog, seemed unfazed by the find, Cowdrey herself was understandably distressed. The absence of a head on the figure only amplified her alarm. In a state of shock and with a sense of urgency, she did what any concerned citizen would do—she called the police.

Upon arrival, even the officers were initially deceived by the lifelike appearance of the supposed corpse. It wasn't until one of the policemen nudged the figure with his foot—a gesture unlikely to be made towards an actual human body—that the true nature of the find was revealed. Flipping it over, the officers and Cowdrey were confronted with an even more realistic view, but it was clear at this point that they were dealing with a 'very realistic' sex doll, not a human being.

The sex doll was so convincing and hefty that it required the combined efforts of three officers to remove it from the beach. The peculiar incident left everyone involved with more questions than answers. How did a headless sex doll end up abandoned on a quiet New Zealand beach? The mystery remains unsolved, as the New Zealand Police, prioritizing more urgent incidents, offered no comment on the matter.

This bizarre story serves as a reminder of the unexpected turns life can take and the strange objects that can sometimes wash up on our shores. It also highlights the advancements in the manufacturing of sex dolls, which have reached a level of realism that can easily be mistaken for actual human beings, at least from a distance or at a glance.

For our readers at the Seniors Discount Club, this tale might evoke a chuckle or perhaps a shake of the head at the oddities that life can present. It's a stark contrast to the simpler times many of us remember, where the most surprising thing one might find on a beach would be a rare seashell or a message in a bottle.

Ha ha ha! Two stories about sex dolls.

Firstly, a co-worker walking from Tempe Station in Sydney to the factory, discovered a blow up doll washed up on the shores on Cooks River at Arncliffe.

Secondly, a joker who remained unknown, placed a blow up doll in the woman's toilet at the same factory. A 60 something female factory worker, first to use the facility just before 6.00 am, promptly fainted, making it two "corpses" next to each other!

Dennis R's Afternoon Joke. A Commander and a Sergeant were in the field doing w/e military training. As they went to bed the Sergeant said, Sir look into the sky and tell me what you see, the Company commander said I see millions of stars, and what does that tell you sir? Astronomically said the Commander, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and billions of planets. Theologically it tells me that God is great and that we are small and insignificant Meteorologically, it tells me that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you Seargeant? Well said the Seargeant, it tells me somebody has stolen our tent.

Considering how expensive sex toys can be, I think the “lifelike” doll must’ve cost someone a lot of money. Then to just chuck it away as a possible joke? Expensive joke.
