Odd things you have found....


Recommended Posts

A few years ago there was a leñgth of quite heavy steel tube in a hedge on the farm. It was dented and twisted. Turned out to have been the tailpipe of a v1 doodlebug that had been there from war days. One year the scrap price was high and someone had it away.

Found a 20mm cannon shell from a spitfire while walking a plough with my dog....made a catapult with it, could be the only catapult responsible for taking out a Messerschmitt 109

Found these at work recently

Not if you read the air gun section mate

Did you find out anything about them rabid. Looks very interesting.

Yeah, we had to stop works and get archaeologists down to check the site, a group of them were there for a few weeks uncovering stuff, they believe it all dates back to the 12th century, found an old stone oven and think it was the site of a great hall type of thing, as I say it was very recent so no firm answers yet, the skeletons were removed and have gone away for carbon dating to give a better idea on age, had they been less than 100 year old police would have been involved as well.

 

this is the brief summary from the archaeologists we had in. Not sure why the kept the skeletons out of it though.

When I was a kid and new no better, we would take one egg from finch,s nest,s and run to the local canary blokes house he,d give us a couple of Bob and hatch them under the canary,s, bully,s and goldies being the most sought after, they would then ring them as captive bred birds when they hatched
