All I ever find with my detector is old beer can pull tabs and nails...............
I have a big jar full of loose change. I wonder how many sheep I can get for it.

Keep up the good work!

I was an exchange student in Freiburg im Breisgau in the early 1990s. It was a really pretty college town with a medieval history then. I’ve heard its a lot more dangerous due to the influx of hordes of “migrants” (ie military age muslim males).
Sad. I really liked Freiburg a lot.

Ive laid some pipe by a swimming pool myself a few times…
And I won't speculate what role sheep may have played in it.
I'm sorry, I just woke up. It'll get better.
