Hi guys I was on TV yesterday! Here's a link to the feature, it is only 2 minutes long and you can see the nugget and some of my finds from the storm ravaged UK

Dude! I was getting worried about you! Outstanding interview! You better get ready for all sorts of phone calls for instruction etc.! You might be able to make some money on the side, or find some private places to detect as well...excellent post as we all were wondering what the status was of your nugget! Thanks!

Awesome that you got to get on TV but unfortunately, expect the beach's to be swamped with detectorists from now on. The upside is really positive vibe's for the hobby but the downside is there will be a lot of people wanting to get in on a chance to get their chunks of gold.!
We are still getting over the $10 Million in gold coins find here in California and wondering what the IRS are going to take from the finder of this golden hoard! But W.W. a huge congratulations again on a very unique and valuable find!!! I hope you find more You definitely have the grit and determination!!

the gold is great ...but what did Simon say about your joggling act??

..Merlin might have to take that big German Shepard of his down there to keep an eye on his back! You can set up a chair/umbrella and sell maps/advice to all the blokes showing up! "pay the gate"
I have a feeling your business and contacts will greatly expand from this TV exposure you got! Get us some pictures of the crowd that a "gold rush" can bring if it happens.

Ha! Ha! Thank you guys, you are awesome! Only 1 detectorist here on the beach, so no gold rush yet.... Went detecting with Nauti Neal earlier, no gold but we had fun.....The sands right back on the beaches now, if loads of detectorists show up they might actually lose some stuff for us to find, so I'm not worried hope you guys are in the water now, if its warmed up yet?
