[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 10649354, member: 10944"]Many things that have lived long healthy lives have met serious injury just after meeting me unfortunately. Each assault makes me a bit more careful the next time though. Well, I’d like to think so at least. Scratched with my shovel the only Spanish silver Reale I’ve ever found detecting. Picked up two frames once when I thought I was grabbing one. Dropped my most valuable print. Glass shattered and I was sure it was going to have cut up the print. Thank god it didn’t but an expensive fix. Brought home a lovely gentleman’s shaving mirror once. Set it on top of my car as I was taking it out. Swift wind smashed the whole thing on the pavement. I broke all the finger pull-up/push down locks in a car and other various trim pieces by jamming a sedan full to the brim of things that I shouldn’t have. Have stained and damaged the upholstery on all vehicles putting dirty and jagged things in them. There are some I recall making me feel sick to my stomach when I did them but the details aren’t coming to me right now. More than few glass, ceramic, and porcelain items got chips on them for sure. Including one of the best satsuma pieces I’ve ever seen.[/QUOTE]
