Title: I keep trying but this is the best I can do!
Post by: hedgehog on January 17, 2009, 04:13:38 PM
Went back to the rape field and worked across it , (worked down it last time), just to see what I had missed (only a small part of it is free at the moment). Anyway got in there first signal was the coin, all downhill after that . Found a few more buttons , bit of lead and shotgun cartridges.
Even one that small has gone through the machinery chewed up and spat out :'(
Can anyone recommend some nice warm trousers for detecting that don't cost too much?
Made a bit of a mess posting the photos it's just one coin!

Thanks for the pep talk Jeb, makes you wonder sometimes why you persevere then you hit something nice and that keeps you going for a few more months! Thank goodness for aerial pics though can see there is a ring ditch further up the field , can't wait for the sheep to get munching!

Thanks for the advice guys (i'm confused now as to what to buy). They all sound good, funnily enough Phil I was thinking of buying kneepads (always down on my knees) so it's all interesting stuff.
