Beachcombing

When Dave is out on his bike he rides with his eyes cast down. When I am on my bike I ride with my head up a la Fotherington-ThomasHullo clouds, hullo sky. Dave’s riding position means he sees flotsam and jetsam on the roads and the verges. This he loves. He brings home treasures. Here is a list of the ones I can remember this morning:

a pair of pliers

a wallet containing a five pound note and some ecstasy tablets

a pair of six inch long nuts and bolts

a huge loader strap from a lorry

the huge spring clip from a loader strap from a lorry

a crow bar

a yard brush – see below.
