Been too long since I've heard a beep, my wee girl had a horrible fever Sunday evening but is back to her full-of-energy self and I have permission to head out tonight.. After I make dinner.

Not sure which area yet, been toying with the idea of wondering aimlessly through where the crowds gather and sit for the 'in the park' events, must be something in the ground there!

So, yell out if you're keen.

I'm hoping to get there around 7'ish and stay for about two hours.

Oh, I meant.. I'm sure we'll all get something 9K, but there's a whiff of 18-22k in the air today!

I think the weather should hold for tomorrow. The forecast says possible showers later Saturday evening so the day should be ok.
I'm looking at getting out in the afternoon for a hunt. I'm thinking North Hagley on the old "Exhibition" fields around 2.30-3.00pm. Anybody else keen?

Yeah I think I might hit Hagley tomorrow also. If I'm about at that time, I'll come try to find you. I know where you mean, havnt tried there before as I assumed it would have been hit really hard. There always seems to be more to be found at Hagley though.

Could be free myself, not sure. Not sure quite where you mean Andrew. Any clues???



My greatest fear is that when I die my wife will sell my collection for what I told her it cost me.

I went there about 4ish but got called away after about 30 mins to a family emergency. Found an odd foreign coin (modern) and 3 bucks. Didn't spot anyone else.
