Title: Aberavon today! Post by: matthewbullingham123 on February 13, 2014, 05:25:59 PM Arrived at the beach at 1.30 instead of 2.30 as planned and glad i did. Only read the tides wrong i thought 5.30 was the low tide and it was the high tide , stupid me.
First 2 signals were coins ,followed by 2 weights and thought great start turned the corner and about 7 other detectorist( be intersting to see what they found) Badger shown me a ring again as usuall. Met jeff the wizard and another detectorist jim? Roundup i had 57 bullets, 6 weights , 2 1/2 pennys , sixpence and old 10p , £1 ,2p ,1p. Also had a little pixie/lepricorn thing and a cheap bracelet. Also had this really unusual fishing weight(mace shape ) first for me :) Still the gold is evading me! Title: Re: Aberavon today!
