Wow!

The dirty buggers! This was 2,000-years. Worse than we are. Who would have thought.

I saw this yesterday during my 1st scan of my beloved U.K. “Daily Mail” yesterday morning. Wow. I doubt whether I would have learnt on this on CNBC, MSNBC or CNN — my other 3 sources of news. I would have been such a shame to have missed this. Huge hinged phallus. What next?

This is why I make a point of reading the U.K. “Daily Mail”, online, multiple times a day. I want to make sure I don’t miss anything.

I was, luckily, rather familiar with the U.K. metal detecting culture having been a HUGE fan of the BBC’s hilarious ‘Detectorists‘. So, I knew what would have been involved etc. Cool. Very cool.

I and the Daily Mail go back nearly 50 years! Can you blame me. How else will I keep up with huge news like this?
