While having my breakfast recently, I was enjoying a small bowlful of deliciously locally-grown strawberries.

I savoured them slowly one by one. As I was having the last one, something was crushed between my teeth.

I realised it was a lead shot pellet about two millimetres in diametre.

The end of the hunting season ended with a pellet as a souvenir in my breakfast.
