Guys Proconsul and myself had a long chat with the farmer (and his son) at the end of the rally.
He was really pleased with the level of friendliness shown toward himself and his family. and chuffed with all the 'gifts' of finds given to them.

His wife and him have already invited us back to the farm for another rally when the crop comes off in September, I think there was mention of a pig roast as well Smiley

Well done everyone!

I would like to say thank you to every one I spoke to at this rally. Very friendly and helpful and made me feel welcome on my first rally. Seemed only fare to give the farmer the farthing I found as could see his boys eyes light up when he seen it.
Any way catch you at the next rally.
Thanks guys

Thank you Rookypair for your info on V pin badge, AJ thought could have been a land girl may have lost it. Will be at the next dig on the 25th and see if  some one can take a picture may see you there. Johnboy25
