:hello:

Well all my fields are out of bounds now till after Harvest :'( now it will be a case of Lean Times and scratching about for places to go :(
So this afternoon I decided to return to the Motorway road works on Deere Street, last year I did very well here and got some really nice finds :headbang: but I new that the spoil heaps had mostly gone and no new section of road was available. On arriving there was a area that had just been ploughed behind a garage, I new this area well as there were thought to be Saxon graves on the mound :o

Five guys were detecting it :'( but I thought I'd give it a go and I already had permission :) I walked on detecting and one of the guys approached me and said ow who said you could come on here :o after telling him politely to go away :laughing9: I carried on detecting, apart from a small piece of Bronze a Marble(eyes) button and a few outher bits it was obvious this site was now just about hunted out :'(

After talking to a few of the outher lads detecting, (the ones with a bit more sense) I headed back to the car :-\ I turned around and looked were the contractors had chopped into the mound to make the service road, and wondered if any one had done the sloped edge. Walking on the slope I had 2 signals the first was an electrical crimp joint, the second was a 5th-6th century Anglo Saxon wrist Clasp :o my first one ever, I would love to know what's buried deeper in that mound :o

warning these hunters ¡¡ you are silver searcher the Master !!!! :cussing: ... would have let you detect quiet ..... ;D
in my country and I never found anyone detected in the same field ... it is clear that in the UK there are too many hunters. ::)

Greetings !!
 

Gee whiz, I was hoping to see that really cool electrical crimp joint. All I get is some really excellent Anglo relic. ;D
 

Nice bit of Saxon mate :icon_thumleft:

I'd love to know what you really said to him :laughing9:
