Easter, Chocolate and Metal Detecting

Posted by ricey on April 9, 2007 4:58 PM | 

What a lovely couple of weeks weather we've had. No rain just nice dry weather. I've been off work for 10 days so have been busy in the garden and doing DIY. Also I've had the children to look after. I've also had an assignment for University to complete along with revision for an exam in a few weeks.

As many of you will know my mum and dad are both keen detectorists. They went detecting yesterday in Cheshire. They said the stubble fields were quite long but were just grateful to get out. They never found a lot. They also said the temperature was quite hot. I don't know - you just can't please some people. I believe they found a small lead seal along with a georgian coin. Normal run of the mill stuff.

It is at this time of the year that crops are now being planted so many farms will soon be out of action until August. By then I may have handed in my resignation to my present employer. Those who follow this blog will know how unhappy I am at work at the moment. Six years with the same employer is a long time this day and age. It really stops me getting on with things I enjoy like metal detecting. Maybe a part time job might be the answer or go self employed again. I'll let you know.
