bbc x-ray interview

[Roman (Ray)]

HI ALL.
i woke up this morning ready to have a interview with the bbc1 news reporter and x-ray producer lucy owen.
after haveing only 3 hours sleep due to my mind being on overdrive,lol.
i must say the nerves had taken toll about 15 mins of getting out of bed.
meeting times where 9.30am at one of alan jenkins farms.as we came over the hill to the farm i seen the camera crew and allmost s**t my pants to say the least.
then i seen lucy owen standing there with a big smile on her face.only ever seeing her reading the evening news.i did.nt know weather to smile back at her or cry.lol
seeing her live infront of my face was something else.
i remember thinking to myself i need to pull myself together.so got out of the car and some how i did that.lol.
they explained for a short while what they where planning on filming.and dont worry just enjoy the day.I SAID TO LUCY ITS OK FOR YOU TO SAY THAT YOU DO IT FOR A LIVEING.LOL.
out on the field we had a few laughs but there was some seriouse times to go with things.after a short while i started to calm down a bit.and do what they said just enjoy the day.

they let me mension detectingwales as we also are now offering the same free service to the public to go out and find any lost items.such as jewelry ect.
that people have lost in they gardens at the local park or maybe a picknick area ect ect..

Oh and don't worry about being nervous, Lucy phoned me this morning at 8 because she was so nervous about meeting the famous Roman Ray.

You beat me to it Chef. I bet she was well frightened of meeting a detecting legend. Well done Ray an ambassador to the hobby and all round good guy. I hope you enjoyed it mate and you look a natural in front of the camera.    One thing though Ray, does this mean you will be charging an appearance fee now at DW rallies.

Well done guys , you did the detecting fraternity proud. And a good advert for R.A.R.E and Detecting Wales to Boot. I would have liked to join you but with whats been happening with Shelley at the moment there was no way I could have.

I must say Its nice for X ray to have asked Dw to take part, they obviously recognise we're the No.1 Detecting Site in Wales
