What story? Anyone have a link?
Thx, Aaron

Here is the link, for the brit named Dave Crisp, who finally got his wife to shut up about metal detecting. [www.dailymail.co.uk]

I live approx 30miles from the finds pace....
Looks like my detecting holiday idea might be a good one...
He did well to resist digging all the coins out and let the Archaeologists finish the dig....
We have a very strained relationship with archies in this country....basicaly they hate us and have tryed many times to get our hobby banned.....
Hopefully this will go some way to restoring the balance......

Stunning story! Love hearing this kind of stuff. Its been all over the news. I'm sure all of the dealers love this kind of news also!!!!

He got his wife to shutup??? THATS THE BEST NEWS OF ALL!!!
