Yet again it is Monday and I have nothing to do but to Metaldetect. After a quick pit-stop at the shop to fill up on fruits,water and some food for the trip, I sped off towards the capitulation site in the warm autumn weather. I started searching around the kitchen area I found before the weekend. There was many signals but the ones I got to dig today was only rubbish and rust, and one of the pits was completely empty except for a smashed zink bucket. The next dumping pit was full,, but only broken glass and worthless rust.
The axe have many times prooved to be a wise investement to the digger kit.
As soon as I got a litte warm from the digging the gnats showed up. Swarms of them, and they all wanted to hang around on my eyes,nose and even wanted to go into my mouth. It became a real challenge keeping the sanity the next few hours. I tried putting on my sunglasses but the gnats still managed to crawl under them and get to my eyes. Having driven so far to dig here I just had to try keep my kool and continue searching and try to ignore the bugs. Well at home now I have placed my mossie net in the bag for tomorrow.
I went over to the ditch wanting to find more of the dog tags, I went over the area twice, once with the All Metal mode and once with the discrimination turned up to ignore iron and rust. There were a few good signals, but mostly it was trash. On one spot though I found the small "corner" of the broken up disc I had found two weeks ago and was very happy with that find.

After the two sweeps across the ditch I am now pretty certain there is no alu signals to pick up, but there is still the 1,5 x 1,5 meter square dumping pit in the end of the ditch. The gnats was messing with my head so I didn`t want to start the pit today so I moved randomly around the forest for the rest of the day. Located a small dumping pit again and several signals spread around, but nothing good. I had kept at it for 5-6 hours and when I decided to stop and return home I ran through the forest to the car to get away from the crazy little biters flying around my head. So,tomorrow I ll bring the mossie net:)
