Post by: Kev on September 16, 2010, 01:10:09 PM

That's just plain nighthawking, and you are never going to convince them to fill in their holes.

Just another example of the media not grasping the fact that these are Nighthawkers  and not "Metal detecting enthusiasts"

Totally agree Rob. How easy the press seem to put genuine detecting enthusiasts so effortlessly into a label that puts us under the same umbrella as nighthawkers. If this was taking place in the day the offenders would be seen and caught so it is obviously a problem that occurs after dark. Hope they catch em and book em.
