Someone, somewhere can have a chuckle now.

Picked up a nice silvery ring this morning, quite a new stainless job.
Gave it a wipe and there in the headlamp was a scrawled word, engraved into the outside of the ring.

Boom!

Nearby residents were probably wondering about the laughter eminating from the predawn darkness..

Well played, whoever you are.

I will engrave MW into it and pass it on to some other location to spread the mirth!

Ha ha bit of a surprise for sure.
Mmmmm could be interesting if everyone buried say an engraved coin with there forum name and see if any of them pop up down the track?

I bet you were looking over your shoulder for a bit after that lot.

Interesting find, least it didn't have a trip wire coming of it.
