Fear not, intrepid readers. Great Britain is not under attack from a hitherto unknown menace. Do not expect to look out of your lounge window and see huge hammers, colossal chisels, super-sized spanners and whacking great wrenches appearing in the sky above. To the good people of Compton Road, West Bromwich, where this apparition is shown to be, I say - do not panic. Some eejit has just left a pair of pliers on the roof of a Google Street View car, that's all.

Attack of the giant handtools
Fear not, intrepid readers. Great Britain is not under attack from a hitherto unknown menace. Do not expect to look out of your lounge window and see huge hammers, colossal chisels, super-sized spanners and whacking great wrenches appearing in the sky above. To the good people of Compton Road, West Bromwich, where this apparition is shown to be, I say - do not panic. Some eejit has just left a pair of pliers on the roof of a Google Street View car, that's all.
