Field Notes
Ted had a play date with Haris so we took Baba for his first time metal detecting on Talacre Beach. Found bullets within first 5 holes before heading to "The Post" where we found loads washed up or barely under the sand at all. A mixture of .303 (7mm) from Spitfires as normal but also discovered a number of 8mm Mauser bullets.
