Pink Wellies get the Boot.

Post by the-roman »

An interesting read,

especially the bit quoting ...

''Metal detectorists contacted by thePipeLine have expressed concern that in attempting to run large rally type events, while the Covid-19 pandemic remains uncontrolled, rally organisers risk bringing the hobby into disrepute at a time when the Government and Historic England are known to be discussing whether the metal detecting should be regulated further in the context of potential revisions to the Treasure Act and Portable Antiquities Scheme''

I totally agree mate. I think the detecting community need to put a stop to this for the foreseeable :g58:
