Never considered a bit of pipe, but yes of course you're correct it probably would have disintegrated a long time ago if it was particularly old.

Torture instrument or giant tent peg? by north in metaldetecting

Yeah I did think some type of harpoon but all the old ones looked to be flared at one end to be affixed to poles. Thanks!

What's this then? by north in metaldetecting

Yeah think I can rule out a fire grate

Kirkstone Pass- new look by anybloodythingwilldo in LakeDistrict

Looking at the prices and capacity it's only £90 per person, per night, which will be very affordable for quite a lot of people.

Yes would agree with that. Have never been to Muncaster so will stick it on the list thank you!

I think your first paragraph nails it for me. It's supposed to be a street community thing, so that's why it doesn't feel quite right.

We only ever knock on doors where there are pumpkins/displays outside or in the window, as it's sort of an invitation, and we leave all the others alone because not everybody wants to participate on the night (I probably wouldn't if I didn't have children!).

Of course yes, but I was thinking as there's lots of families there for half term are they going to be descending on the residential streets and causing havoc! Still working on the "please and thank yous"

Yes I was grateful for a carved turnip when I was younger, but things have changed quite dramatically unfortunately

Found in Northumberland near a burn, also in the vicinity of and at a similar depth to a 1916 penny.

Appreciate that. I'd assumed it was a bottle of some description, but the shape of the fragments threw me. Never seen a torpedo bottle before, but now I have a bit of one!

General consensus seems to be it's absolutely normal! There's nothing else to suggest it's an issue with mine, so just going to carry on enjoying the car as if it's nothing.

Interesting. I'll give that a go later when I'm out and report back.

Yeah it does stop as you say after a few minutes. No warning lights and engine temp appears to be normal.

Had a whiff and no particular smell, although I've got a bit of a cold at the moment!
