Re: Did not expect to be dithering over a spade

Well I use a mini digger from Regton. It’s very lightweight but strong and can be easily carried all day. Had one for years.

Re: Guardian article on detecting

Re: Pantheon sinkhole reveals ancient paving

So glad that I took the chance to go and visit Rome last year. It was just, well, incredible! Having found my share of Roman coins, this was like coming home. History buffs like us just lose it in a place like Rome. It just oozes history from every pore. At the back of the forum, and palatine hill, ...
