I had the (mis)fortune to catch a piece on Radio 4 earlier about metal detecting. And you'll never guess who's a dab hand at it. Bill Wyman apparently. Hell, if even he's lost interest in chasing women, what hope is there for the rest of us. And I thought alzheimer's was the worst I could expect.

He was on Time Team once, they excavated the garden of his mansion.

There's a bit of a love-hate relationship between metal detectorists and real archaeologists. Apparently the detectorists tend to f*ck up the stratigraphy when the dig up their finds, but then again, the archaeologists wouldn't necessarily find the stuff the detectorists do.

There's got to be a joke about Ben Gunn in there somewhere, but I'm buggered if I can find it.
