Cycling along and I ran over some Shrapnel. Nott the bomb kind--A pile of those small coins that collect in your pocket and just weigh you down till you count it and realise how much you have. There was lots of it so scooped up as much as I could into the pockets of my jersey and eventually got home with over £10 worth of pennies. That is 1,000 coins and I can assure you that I left more than I took. Surprising thing was that they were in one big pile as though they had been dumped and not littered over the road if they fell out of a car.
