They mostly look a bit like they are supposed to be where you found them, doing what they are doing now; i.e. waiting around to stepped on. :) The big bit in the first pic looks like it suffered in a demolition. Has your house had any obvious alterations in the past, like turning a pantry into...

There's the 'skin-off-the-top-of-a-mushroom' trick too.

Soft heat treat for the win, in general.

I think maybe you have stumbled on the solution (You can see what I did there, right:))

That sounds like a horrific pest, a permanently open wound like that, Stew. I use sudocrem to cure all ills, but I sometimes wonder what else it is suppressing. Just ordinary health paranoia, I think, and still, no ill-effects yet. This just me being curious: has it kept bleeding; or, has it...

What you done to yourself Stew?

Leukotape, Stew, Leukotape!!! Amazing stuff. It don't come off.

:) Ah, must be getting my avatars mixed up, I think. My mum and dad wanted to move back to Devon at one point. Wish they had.

There's other bits??!!! :) Have I got this right; you are in Wales? I lived in the Rhondda as a kid ... there was slate all over the place. But I think mainly from the north and mid Wales - I don't remember seeing slate quarries in the south ... blue pennant quarries everywhere there was house...

Could be a lintel or some other part of a doorway ... too narrow to cantilver into the wall or for a sill Too small for a water trough too ... given your mention of a ford. Though if you find some more you may have the makings of rather nice planter :)

What kind of condition is it in now? Thought it might be a bit of a pool table, but that make little sense. It could be architectural. There might be more in the ground if its the site of a demolition.

55% Linen, 25% Polyester, 20% Cotton

oops .. doubler

Funnily enough I was watching this with my daughter just the other day

If ever there was a thread in need of the 'useless without pics' tag :)

You do! :) I've never worn a linen base when it really counts, up a mountain, in the winter, but I often wear a linen shirt under a sweater in cooler weather. It is so comfortable because it's so absorbent for any occasional exertions ... but not wicky, I think. It does dry a lot quicker than...

Yes But, the 420J steel used to make the laminate is very soft. It could erode, depending on a persons convexing technique or liking for a polished finish

Ah ... got the wrong end of the stick. This help? The logo looks washed out on all the fixed blade Fallkies I have ... there's just some ink in the engraving/etching.

Kind of a swingers' thread
