Unexploded bomb - NOT amateur radio

On the news was a piece about a couple that had an unexploded bomb in their flowerbed. It had been there for many decades and they always assumed it was safe. It was found to be live after all! The wife frequently used it to bang her trowel on!

False alarm? - NOT amateur radio

We had a police car outside our house for an hour (we thought they just wanted a nice, quiet spot to eat lunch) and then the bomb disposal guys came. Normally it is very quiet. I suspect they had a new exhibit at the museum and wanted to be doubly sure it is safe. All gone now and back to normal.
