I'm not sure where it's at right now, in London I think. Next time you go by there, think of me, wishing I was there. LOL I know there are farmers who will let you go on their land with metal detectors. I definately have to do that. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

History Channel recently had a show about William the Conqueror. It was really good and very informative. Lots of stuff that I wasn't aware of. I also love the color of the blouse that you are wearing in your picture. Very good color on you. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

They started it with water...made me wonder afterwards if indeed they camped by water for that reason, but I'm sure there were others. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Great progs shirly but the actual film footage used, showing the invasion in 1066 was a little dated as it was shot in black and white. lol. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

When I heard about this great find, I wondered if all my good friends over there ever go out with their metal detectors. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
