Title: Out Detecting Today
Post by: SimonH on January 12, 2010, 01:38:27 PM
Me and Jo had a few hours out at our local farm, ground wes very soft considering the 2-3" of snow on the ground.

Jo had a 1862 Halfpenny, lead bag seal,  a lovely Womens Land Army Badge, I ended up with a 1861 halfpenny and 3 lead bag seals.

You two are brave!  It is soooooooooo cold when the wind blows - all the wrapped up bits are OK, but any exposed flesh sure gets a chill  :D
The Womens Land Army Badge is a nice find.

Nice badge Jo, my mother was in the Land Army just after WWII, she was based in the Isle of Wight.

Last year she received a Diploma and letter of thanks from Gordon Brown and was invited by the Mayor of Torfaen to a buffet for local ladies who served in the Land Army.

Better late than never eh? lol.
