Tul, hi bud. I hope you're in a humorous good mood reflected by your guess. In case it makes you a bit happier, YES, I am on earth.

Making sure Nick, just making sure.

Sofa?

not EH and not Sofa....more like a throne at this moment

yes...and don't let the walrus hit you in the ass. Talk about "ass", this is some old shit.

right where I am is out in the country now.

This location is famous for something recently (in the last few months) found here that goes back before "England" existed.

not Stonehenge and not in a castle. I'm pretty much out in the open since this important discovery was made here. They don't have counties here, so look for me in a shire.

good sauce, but not where I am. But I am in ________shire because of the startling discovery here recently.

nope, but that's closer to where I am than that sauce place was.

Wiltshire, England. because of Bluehenge?

not that shire, either, Tul. But I looked up Bluehenge since I didn't recall hearing that name, and it fits my clues exactly, although I am not there. I'm north of there.

The discovery at this location is not as ancient as Stonehenge or Bluehenge, but it is archeological in nature.

hadrian's wall?

or have we been there before...

I think we were at Hadrian's Wall, and I'm not there this time.

Clue: Anglo-Saxon

el correcto, hombre! You're up next, Tully.

I'm in Staffordshire because of the discovery here of the "Staffordshire Hoard" in July 2009 The Staffordshire Hoard

The Staffordshire Hoard is an unparalleled treasure find dating from Anglo-Saxon times. Both the quality and quantity of this unique treasure are remarkable. The story of how it came to be left in the Staffordshire soil is likely to be more remarkable still.

The Hoard was first discovered in July 2009. The find is likely to spark decades of debate among archaeologists, historians and enthusiasts.

Leslie Webster, Former Keeper, Department of Prehistory and Europe, British Museum, has already said:

This is going to alter our perceptions of Anglo-Saxon England… as radically, if not more so, as the Sutton Hoo discoveries. Absolutely the equivalent of finding a new Lindisfarne Gospels or Book of Kells.

Hmm I should use my metal detector more often.

Ok find me.

EH?

The Narberth Hoard - My Metal Detector Story by BadNick
About 24 years ago, my then wife, now my ex, apparently lost a couple of her rings including a diamond engagement ring and a diamond anniversary ring, together worth way over $5000. We couldn't imagine how they were lost. I checked all the drains in the house and anyplace else we could think of, but nothing turned up.

Over a year later, my daughter, who was ~7 years old at the time, came running into the house from our back yard "mommy, daddy, look what I found". It was one of the lost rings! She noticed a shiney little speck in the dirt path along one side of our yard and as she dug out the item, it was this ring. So we looked all around to see if we could find the other ring, but nothing turned up. We decided to rent a metal detector as a last ditch effort. After scanning our yard and finding some very old, large nails, we eventually got a buzz and when we dug down a little over an inch deep in the dirt, we found the other ring! This dramatic find has come to be known as the BadNick Family Hoard. Local historians, and Mr. & now ex-Ms. BadNick have theorized that years ago when Ms. BadNick was getting washed clothing out of the washing machine and ready to hang it on the clothsline in the yard, she removed both rings. Then as she carried the basket of clothes into the yard, she held the rings in her hand while grasping the laundry basket. Upon entering the yard and placing the basket down, she "forgot" that she had the rings in her hand and simply let them fall without realizing it. With rain and children and dogs playing, the rings became buried until this startling find by Baby BadNick.
The End.

Nope

I still like ya Phil.

so, still don't know if we're eh or wh...

nick guessed eh...
