10.A.M - 2.15 On the beach with wife...together we.couldnt even find a pull tab ...1 signal and that turned out to be a lead fishing weight."Had enough of this today" says I...wife replies " Didnt I tell you wed find nothing here? Decided to go home .. then She got a faint signal,thought she might as well dig it.....Around 10 inches down ,up popped a gold st christopher and chain-18 carat. Id bought her a 9 carat one about 4 months ago-that cost £69.99 ,so wondering what this would have cost..cant find 1 on argos to check. Anyway left details in beach shop which is about 100 yards away .....inscription on back which wasnt given ......we shall see. But whether we get to keep it or not its very nice find.

Whilst on the way back to the car, eh? We hear that so many times! Well found and congratulations on trying to find the original owner. If you email Paul O'Grady on Radio2 ( under their lost and found section ) he will read out your find on his Sunday evening show.

Did it for me two weeks ago, but as yet no claimants! ::g
