  1. Great photo that evoked a smile and memories of childhood — we, too, have gulls following the cultivator/seeder, hoping to score some grubs. No Roman antiquities, however, but occasionally an ancient spear head.

  2. Loved this post, including the farmer with a disdain for Swedish teenagers! And the digging up of farmland clearly indicates the end of winter. Who knows what’s lurking underneath?

    • Thank you so much for your comment, as for “what’s lurking underneath “ it will, as usual be Roman pottery and flint axe shards from Neolithic times. Ho hum, nothing unusual 😂. As for Swedish teenagers they need to be grateful for the climate change: real or imagined, from earlier times. No pain no gain!
