After a recent visit to one of the farmers, they mentioned some new fields we could try. Dad scouted 2 of the fields yesterday for 1.5 hours (finds included in the below picture) & decided on 1 of them. Strangely we both agreed to start gridding in the same area, we had the same idea about where might be good. We did 6 hours (12 man hours) in the relatively warm weather ![icon_sunny :icon_sunny: :icon_sunny:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/icon_sunny.gif)
After Dad's scounting mission & after only about 10 minutes hunting we were both positive that it would be hammered time any second, but it wasn't to be, well not today anyway![Wink :wink: :wink:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/wink.gif)
Instead it was Saxon City with 2 8th C Strapends, Pin Head & Clothes Fastener
(might be our best Saxon day on record) ![icon_thumright :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:](https://www.treasurenet.com/smilies/icon_thumright.gif)
