:hello:

Well there should have been more things to post than I have :'( but Friday I was away on business and didn't get home till turned 3am :tard: Michael was due to pick me up the same day at 8am, I new i would be wrecked on the field.
I did however manage to get some detecting in for a few hours before I crashed out in the hedge :sleepy2: which is a real shame because the new land we acquired has the Roman road on it , which we have been folowing from the Villa site :o the farmer had mentioned that while ploughing he had turned up huge stones :o this had got our interest up and he said we could have a look, even though it was cropped :headbang:

The first signs were there straight away, pottery, bronze coins, tiles the lot. I should have been jumping through hoops but I was exhausted, and I only managed 2 hours detecting.
I did manage a few bits though, 4 bronzes a few buckles, Geo spade imitation or gaming piece, and bits, Michael did much better, while i was asleep in the car, he managed 27 bronzes, and 2 nice Hammered :notworthy:

This could turn out to be a good field. :coffee2:

got the William about five years ago, from the site I wanted you to come to last year, there's been a least 15 from the same field. Although it's been done to death, there's always a chance of something good.

I think it was from a lucky charm, but it's not Silver. I think a Chinese building or something :dontknow:

Hi SS, that field looks like a good one :icon_thumleft:. The small building thing looks like the pagoda in Kew gardens.
