Mine has many times over nearly 40yrs of detecting..Spent years in the museum library looking for sites and hoard locations..My wife even thought I was crazy going out in snow storm detecting..Our holidays have been booked around a potential juicy detecting rally for years..I spent long thousands of pounds on the latest super duper machine over the years..Always bringing the subject around to metal detecting in any pub with farmers or landowners .in the hope of enquiring permission to detect their land..Always looking around museum when on short breaks.Bucket list of finds is still hanging there and plenty to find yet..Always looking at other detectorists finds..Still getting Treasure Hunting and Searcher...I have just read this post and yes I am of my head ..

Unfortunately I'm not planning on going in that direction and I've heard that hell has some nice detectors and great signals but the ground is dry and they don't give you a spade Sad
