    Looks like some background research is in order on the property. :D

    Sounds like your garden is a treasure trove that needs archeological exploration.

    As the seller, that goes in all of my contracts.

    It's like EPA violations: Your Property/Your Mess.

    You pretty much described the entirety of England.

    I must apologize to @Bert Davies for being a smart ass, but in my defense, donkeys are rarely shod and the choice ride for armed free spirit desert highwaywomen. :D:rolleyes:

    Okay.
    Bert contacts expert and expert comes up with an indefinite theory but declares the area to be of archeological importance.
    In order to start a dig, archaeologists declare the house to be in the middle of the grid and have it torn down.
    Bert is now homeless.
    When the dig is in progress, they discover a cache of explosives that were obviously carried there by a horse pulled caisson hence, the shoe.
    One of the archaeology interns hits a stray explosive with his shovel and the entire area is blown up including everyone who was watching the dig.

    100 years later:
    Man goes out into his garden and whilst digging, finds a belt buckle that says “Bert” on it. Poor Bert.

    Summary: Find an iron stake, 3 more horse shoes and play horseshoes. Much safer than calling an expert.

    You're forgiven, Faye, but if you mean what you say, buy us all a drink, mine is a pint of bitter and a packet of salted peanuts. :D

    We're still debating if taxation with representation is an improvement.

    Here is mine:

    7 rows and 6 feet tall. The deer stand next to it, and breech the wall in a single bound. The most it does is cause me to offend the neighbors with a stream of expletives (those things hurt!)
