Hello mate. I went and stayed for the weekend although the signals were very few and far between. Had a battered Edward the third halfpenny,a coin weight for a gold angel,a little military cap/lapel badge and a tudor toggle button thing. Not a great deal for the hours put in searching but still enjoyed the break and the company of the people I met-oh and my dog Norman found a tenner under a pub table! Did see some nice finds though but I wasn't so lucky.

I went on my own also, and all in all had a good time. Met a few old mates not seen for a while. 
 A lot of people were moaning about no finds, which i found very strange. Everytime i went out i found an odd array of lead, viccy pennies and buckles and buttons. Then finally on Sunday late afternoon found my very first cut half ( John short cross ).

On one of the Saturday fields,  people were finding hammereds all round me, yet i couldn't find one  :-[ i checked that se was switched on a couple of times !

The whole rally was well organised and marshalled, finds on any rally are not guaranteed, i did notice that the new Deus seemed to excel on the fresh ploughed soil. ???

lincs sounds nice to me ,i was based near in the forces,a place called kirton in linsey ,history is much good ,i would go there just for a drink
