Odd things you’ve found in a field

[Leam_Carrie]

Got back from riding tonight. Horse rushes off purposefully to look at something I think could be a branch. Next thing see her standing there holding a handbag.

Quickly go to grab it incase unsafe etc. Turns out to be a Louis Vuitton bag (maybe real... wouldn’t know how to spot a good fake!). Now assuming it was stolen and trying to find the owner. An improvement on the usual beer cans, rubbish etc. The field is on a quiet country lane.

Any interesting finds in your field?

A motorcycle helmet is about as interesting as I've found, footpath running along one side of the field and found it chucked over on my muck heap one day. Did also once find a pair of scissors (not mine) in the field, I presumed Mr fox was to blame for those and thanked my lucky stars I found them before one of the ponies did!
A LV handbag is an interesting find, very odd!

I have had an office chair hopping over the fence from the rugby club next door into my field for a couple of years. OH launches it back periodically, but it always returns. Because obviously my horses are the ones who discarded it ?

 

[milliepops]

Oh we also acquired a hammer with half the claw broken off. It's now kept in the shelter for emergency cack handed repairs, waste not want not...

I found a large soft toy that I think was supposed to be a frog in the middle of our field once, looked like it was probably about 30 years old as well, no idea where it could have come from.

Dropped by a bird?
A rabbit dog toy disappeared from our garden. We could only think a bird took it.

 

[Regandal]

Found a dead swan the other day, it had flown into power lines. Horse not fazed in the slightest.

 

[blitznbobs]

Mainly half eaten rabbits and the odd Mac Donald’s cup...( live next door to a footpath)

 

[cobgoblin]

Modern day hippie looking for magic mushrooms. ?

 

[jojo5]

Am guessing that handbag was stolen, emptied of valuables and then chucked over your field fence - this happened to a bag of mine once ( not LV, I hasten to add!!), which was stolen from my car at a cash and carry and found empty in a neighbouring field.

 

[Caol Ila]

Cocaine. Well, baggies of something that had once been filled with white powder and a scratch card. We guessed it was coke in the baggies.

 

[Bradsmum]

Golf balls were quite regular, think neighbour practiced. One of those plastic toy soldiers with parachute attached, guess he just glided in with the wind.

 

[planete]

An intact large hen's egg in the middle of the field. I blamed the fox as there are no hens on the property.

 

[SEL]

Golf balls - must be dropped by red kites because my fields are surrounded by other fields (& cows don't play golf)

We had metal detectors around last year and they found every old rug buckle that has been lost for the past 25 years.

A transit van, upside down, that had (somehow) managed to clear an almost 6ft high hedge........

Not strictly in my field (the bonnet was, the rest was in the ditch outside). The owner wasn’t present and i only just saw it in the bush. The police said if it was still there by morning they’d attend ?. It wasn’t, so someone possibly drink driving got away with that as well as damage to the lamppost outside.

I’ve had chicken eggs too. The nearest chickens are 200m away.

 

[Frano]

A man wearing only pants jumped out from behind my water trough and ran away. No idea who he was or where he came from.

 

[Errin Paddywack]

I had a mini land up in my roadside paddock. It had cleared my high, bushy hedge with minimum damage after the lad driving it had ignored warnings about an oil problem with his engine. It seized at speed and took off. He kept bringing his mates down to show them, quite proud of his achievement. Good job his parents were friends of ours.

 

[J&S]

A very young ginger kitten. He lived with us for the next 13 years.

 

[ycbm]

A new pair of mens work boots, and we live half a mile from the nearest house, no footpaths.

A bronze age flint arrow head (actually picked out of a horse's hoof).

I would love to find one of those!

Mainly half eaten rabbits and the odd Mac Donald’s cup...( live next door to a footpath)

I thought for a moment that the two had come from the same walker ?

[scruffyponies]

Our neighbours had the metal detectorists in and found a (live) WW2 land mine.
They got as far as actually digging it up, but fortunately it was identified before anyone tried to investigate further and the bomb disposal people dealt with it.

 

[ElleSkywalkingintheair]

A dog

 

[Cloball]

A man wearing only pants jumped out from behind my water trough and ran away. No idea who he was or where he came from.

I don't know if that's terrifying or hilarious.

 

[joosie]

A fish

 

[Cloball]

My own phone, that I thought I'd left at home.
No horses and a distinct lack of fencing. There had been a wolf sighting that night and we found them 3 miles down the road totally fine.

 

[southerncomfort]

A stash of false numberplates.

 

[Quigleyandme]

A child’s return rail ticket Exeter to Totnes, a newt, golf balls and a rotary clothes line.

 

[Berpisc]

Golf balls, quite a few. I think someone was practising in the playing field next door. Me and the liveries picked the balls up regularly for a while and the supply stopped. Not so nice was finding some drinks glasses in the field with the tops broken so that they sat upright with jagged edges
