Title: If only ..... Post by: handyman [Alan} on April 14, 2015, 10:04:21 AM ......Out monday with my detecting buddy, who somehow contrived to lose his flask on the field. Being rather elderly he was getting worried as to whether he would find it again. Anyway, we re-traced our steps, and as he told me to go look in one part of the field, he turned to go the other way ... .and lo and behold, look what the so and so pulled out!!!
as queen victoria was alleged to have said "We are not amused!" ;D ;D enjoy the piccy Title: Re: If only ..... Post by: handyman [Alan} on April 14, 2015, 10:04:56 AM ...as for the flask ..... yep, i found it ....... in the area he told me to go and look!! ;D ;D
