[QUOTE="Loner, post: 5867328, member: 115446"] I don't think there is any special time to approach the landowners,so long as it is not when they are actually gathering crops,or working the land later in the year. Each farmer will have a different work programme depending on what they specialise in . To some extent you tube posters who put the videos on line of what they find have caused problems.The ones who do not have permission can work out where they are ,and they have then gone at night time with torches,and left fields in a mess. A lot of those on you tube have equipment that cost over a £1,000 , that is why they tend to get a lot of the finds,but then put the info on their own site on you tube . Be nice to see them sharing them finds with a farmer on their sites . Anyway if you have a landowner that you feel has a good piece of land ,that looks promising ,then go and approach them ,and explain everything to them , in a polite way. I have not had the chance as yet to approach anyone near me as I have had a few problems healthwise , and the cold is a no no for me. I souldn't even go with my son when he was over at the Xmas period,he went on an organized event, but it was just so cold, and I had contacted a chest infection, don't like anti biotics, so I just stayed in and sucked plenty of Hacks, & throaties. I think you probably have a lot of history round about where you are,and I wish you luck with your quest in to the past . [/QUOTE]
