Gravel also has an insatiable appetite for small nuts and washers too...
have you ever noticed when searching gravel for some lost valuable bit you always find the rubbish, old cable tie ends, bits of broken plastic, split balljoint gaiter clips and so on but never what you're actually looking for...
Sometimes, if the gods are smiling, you find what you lost lost time you were working on the car and gave up trying to find at the time.
An old truism is that if you have a spare of something then you'll never loose the original item - it's always the one thing you only have one of that you loose

Well, belly buttons eat socks, that's why there's always one missing, and it's where belly button fluff comes from, so the ground eating things isn't that surprising.

Franklin,
I've emailed you the latest Convoy Drive route. Did I tell you it's now going to Scotland and back with a car transporter in the middle of it?
Most, if not all of the revisions are thanks to Robyn
