It would be pointless detecting after that. A find of a lifetime. Makes the odd spindle whorl a bit redundant dunnit?

I only caught the announcement on the news, and have seen nothing more so far.

It's fabulous news, and I congratulate the father and son on what is a most important find.

Looking forward to the rest of the story, it really is special.
I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.
