However the sword is not mine and was not left there by me.
So what's the story?
I've heard the one about the teapot, but not the sword.
Well...
A good friend of mine on his last trip to Redmire some years ago decided to leave a little something that would hopefully be found by someone else at some point in the future and added too.
He thrust a sword (I believe is was a fencing sword of some type) into the mud of shallows as a marker and next to it placed a tin with undisclosed contents.
If anyone does find it I would love to know what was in the tin.

No link I'm afraid Mushy.
The chap who left the sword was recent, last 5 years or so.

The Kettle is inscribed with a message to Jayne ! See my journal of autumn 2014 and photo of the mystery kettle.
