Random question - metal detector

That's very kind, Vinny. Thanks, both, for your responses.

Unfortunately I noticed that it was missing at midday. And we had been digging the garden (thankfully a small space to cover) plus went through the grass at the park with the little one. Rather more problematic. It could also be in the house, though no sign yet indoors or out with the crawling about and shining a light strategy. I assume it came out in the garden when my scarf would have been rubbing it or in the park when I put my hood up in the rain. I'll keep looking and the neighbors are all kindly keeping an eye out. Maybe I'll get lucky, too, Veggie
