Back about 17  years ago on playground with the bark covering, lone parent of 3 at the time, very little money but had a c scope 770D. Found £85 in coinage (that was £20 more than I was getting in weekly benefits!), that was a great help to buy shoes etc; did think at the time that the kids playing on there were given far too much pocket money, found six quid in one neat little pile.
Next best day was going out with my 1266x, just the fact that I had been able to save to buy it was great, a nice feeling going out knowing that if it is there you have a good chance of finding it

Second time out , I found a roman bull figurine . I passed it through the P.A.S. who confirmed that it was a roman votive 3 horned  bull , the figurine itself is made of a bronze alloy , and was more or less sitting on the surface.
            After that I was hooked !

Many years ago whilst detecting on barry beach I was approached by a young couple who had been paddlimg in the surf the young women told me her husband had just lost is wedding they had only been two weeks before feeling sorry for them I said Iwould search for it  but could,nt promise  them anything by this time the tide had lowered I asked them where they were when the loss took place I drew some grids on the wet sand and worked them one at a time a couple of pulltabs later Irecieved a cracking signal stuck my trowel in the sand out popped a gold eternity ring  five minutes later I found the husbands  ring I shall always remember their faces  I refused a reward  things like this can make ones day and can only reflect well on the hobby Roll Eyes mole
