If someone had died it would be a murder investigation ?

Bloody awful, i hope Craig and the others are on the mend soon.. i hope when the name of the wicked minded individual comes out that they are denied NCMD or FID insurance and ban from any metal detecting forum!

Nap your a top fella with what you done helping those poor individuals, you have my up most respect...

Nothing to stop them using a false ID or change their name via deed poll ?

I think in our community, someone will always know who the baddies are.

True HH, i would of thought false id is more likely than a name change via deed poll, after all some members know her so i think shes scuppered unless she moved away to another area!...

Sorry Pete its that work again...

"Treasure hunter, 50, reveals how metal detector convention descended into 'mayhem' after 13 members accidentally ate a cake spiked with CANNABIS and broke out in wild dancing before they were taken to hospital"

It was also on the Radio 4 news this afternoon, not sure if it made the main news on the TV?

'Treasure hunter' again Lee - is it just you and me that finds that word offensive when used to describe members of our hobby - I do not know any so called 'treasure hunters' but know well over a hundred metal detectorists

I know! Infuriating that we keep being called that.
Imagine the anger if they called archaeologists treasure diggers?

Is any of this cake left over?
