Yeah, but I think Schroeder means that it's the largest UXB he's heard of.

I think we've found most of the presents from the Luftwaffe here, but some stuff crop up from time to time, one got dredged up by a fishing boat a few years back just offshore from here. Made a rather hefty bang when they detonated it.
Half of the UXO around here though is British or American.
