Post by: waltonbasinman on April 20, 2009, 04:30:35 PM
Coming back past Evesham today i was busting to pop behind the hedge as they say when i spotted two detectorists. so i thought i would have the said business and pop and have a chat and introduce my self. Did the business and turned to walk towards the pair when they just legged it like a F1 car. Never to be seen again. What do ya reckon. Illega

sounds like they didn't want to get attacked by your weapon to me, hmmm it must look pretty frightening lol
 they sound pretty dodgy to me though, if they had nothing to hide they wouldn't have legged it,

Seriously though folks if they were illegally detecting I mean it was 1300 hrs on a warm sunny day in broad daylight . I mean the cheek of it. I was cutting across the back road from Childhamwick Near Broadway to join the A46 to  Tewkesbury and is a rubbish road for cars as you can not see over hedges,but in the Sprinter you can see in the fields and on down the road. I did not see any other vehicles.
