EVERYBODY got a text from PoohBear at around 10:53am methinks. :)

Sad thing (for me) is he found it on the opposite side of the tree I dug a gold locket and chain up a couple of days earlier. Sod.

Great going Chris - I wrote a reply and it got lost in the ether so heres take two - I love it and you will be over the moon - I bet your rapt - I also bet you have sat there oggling it, fondling it, stroking it, perving at it, fitting it on fingers, rubbing it, pondering it, looking at it close up, looking at it from a distance, slept with it beside the bed and back to number one.
I daresay that is the beginnng and may you havemany more finds like it but the first is always the best - actually my first wasnt as she insisted the lights be put out.
