Default Wrong Hobby???

I think we all have the wrong hobby my new hobby is going to be a metal detectorist.

Who wants to be messing about with cars when you can go hunting for treasure in Britain's glorious countryside.

I just saw this on the news... What an amazing find.

Metal-detecting couple find one of Britain's biggest ever treasure hoards as they discover almost 2,600 ancient coins worth around £5m in an unploughed field.

What amazes me is... the hoard wasn't even buried that deep.

Watch the video HERE...

Many years ago I found treasure in Somerset when I met my wife.

Blooming good hobby to have but that won't make you rich, you'll discover an STI instead.

You need to be careful, and have permission from landowner. Alot won't allow them on their land.

Sounds like a right good circus.

I have no understanding nor experience as to what you might be referring to.
