Maybe not in the spirit of this thread.....

As a resident of Birmingham, my first thought was that you were showing us a patch of tarmac that nobody had parked a car on. Then I spotted the filename and looked closer.

http://www.malin.me.uk/misc/n2o.JPG might be easier.

I've been asked for an explanation of what I found. It's a large quantity of empty nitrous oxide cartridges. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recreational_use_of_nitrous_oxide

11'sis......not the sort of thing I would actually spend money on, but very nice it was too, despite being completely shattered. Lots of loose yummies.

Wash your hands!

I don't know where you live, BP, but wherever it is, you have the most careless shoppers ever.

Ha, the moment I saw a socket I just knew it'd be a 13mm or a 10mm

Kim · « **Reply #686 on:** 28 March, 2020, 11:05:49 pm »

I bet even Blodwyn Pig couldn't find a 10mm...

Nike 'dryfit' running top.

Now washed, and ..well.. I'm actually wearing it now, result! Quite large for a Medium.

Blodwyn - could you let us know what sort of ground scanning radar device you use?

A useful, small drawstring bag, with a 'Michelin' logo. washed and use to house my lock.

A small 'Topeak' tool pouch, empty unfortunately ( or fortunately ?)

Any use to anyone? In free stuff.

You wouldn't happen to know anything about the pristine-looking dead badger on the hill up to Tanworth-in-Arden? Someone's nicked it...

Davef · « **Reply #694 on:** 27 April, 2020, 07:41:51 pm »

How pristine ? Maybe it was just having a snooze.

Quite a long snooze, it was there for two days, then it wasn't.

Cudzoziemiec · « **Reply #696 on:** 28 April, 2020, 08:55:49 am »

Maybe someone took it to feed their dogs. Or themselves.

fuaran · « **Reply #697 on:** 28 April, 2020, 12:20:51 pm »

Or someone inspired by Chris Packham, to set up a carcass cam? I did spot a dead deer yesterday, but a bit too rotten and too big to carry home...

The Family Cyclist · « **Reply #698 on:** 28 April, 2020, 12:41:14 pm »

The badger may have been collected by a local badger group if they are in your area and still operating. They do research on the bodies to assess health and check no foul play in its death (I only know about this as used to work with a guy who was a member of a group)

Basil · « **Reply #699 on:** 28 April, 2020, 04:53:38 pm »

I noticed a poster in our vet's asking people to report dead badgers to a non local number.
