May I call it a score???

[AndreaCarrara]

Hallo Everybody, Happy New Year to You & families all....just to say that this morning i went on the beach for a walk with my faithful "lead sniffing dog" and noted a wrecked fishing net washed up...quick look and...yes...something shiny was showing up...Well, got some pliers from the car and started cutting/ripping under guidance of my dog...left the beach with a pound of lead weights....I'll be back tomorrow morning, after celebrations, to give the final digging...I call it a " end of the year score".

Cheers to You All & again, Happy New Year...

Andrea

Take everything you can get, good find.

We are the best recyclers anywhere, taking stuff that has been discarded and forgotten and turning it into something useful. I scrounge everything I can. Good dog!

Score! Good Dog

One clip on at the curb is a score!!!

Happy New Year.

Hallo Everybody, I went back to the beach this morning, equipped with gloves, cutter,pliers & dog.At the end of a two hours effort, I came home with another 5 pounds of lead weights...had to turn the fishing net upside down and dig well in but hey...as we say: "Chi trova piombo a capodanno trova piombo tutto l'anno"...meaning "Who finds lead on New Year's Day finds lead along the way"...OK, the original proverb was meant for something else, but I adapt it eagerly.
Cheers to All of You from Italy.

How much do fishing nets go for?

+1, good score. I was thinking the same thing about diving weights. I had 18# that are now inguts, waiting to become boolits.

I went to a tire shop yesterday expecting a fair value buy for used ww's ( I was even willing to pay premium price, anything below scrap yard price ) and was rudely shut down. With my head hung low on the way back to my truck, I spotted one ounce and a half clip on at the ground below my driver's side door. I picked it up and threw it in my bucket and considered it a score, because the bastid seemed hostile to lead seekers. Anything for nothing is considered a score to me.

We go to the tire shop quite a bit for work and I always keep my eyes to the ground. I usually find 5-6 WW just walking in the door..
