Title: Re: The long goodbye.... Post by: John Winter on September 22, 2014, 03:00:30 PM What a wonderful seal matrix. Don't think it has anything to do with freemasonry.

Title: Re: The long goodbye.... Post by: Doug on September 24, 2014, 10:59:27 AM Good morning from the US.
The post was a tongue in cheek but I was waiting for information to come back to me before it was posted. 3 seals in one week is a thing of dreams but it's what makes this hobby of ours so addictive? Title: Re: The long goodbye.... Post by: nonker10 on September 24, 2014, 09:59:54 PM 3 seals in one week ,some people never get one.well done mate aside from the detector your one of the lucky ones thats magnetically actraccted to the earth and the detector just helps.mind you i have drank rather a lot of wine tonight and may be talking b""lo++ks
