<p class="story-body__introduction">An eight-year-old found a pre-Viking-era sword while swimming in a lake in Sweden during the summer.</p>
Saga Vanecek found the relic in the Vidöstern lake while at her family's holiday home in Jönköping County.

The sword was initially reported to be 1,000 years old, but experts at the local museum now believe it may date to around 1,500 years ago.

"It's not every day that you step on a sword in the lake!" Mikael Nordström from the museum said.

Wet tart?

Japanese swords are far superior, maybe we could convince them to build a factory in the UK after brexit.

I'm not sure it counts if the lake was in Sweden. That said a six year old might be a distinct upgrade on any of the current lot or the alternatives.

Big deal people find machetes in hedges and behind bins all the time in South London, nobody claims that’s a sign of divine providence.

Moistened.

Moistend means something else when it references a bint.  😝
