Stephen Jack Wrote:Italy, where did I write Italy? please can you post that text. If you had written England and France then you would have been correct.
Where did I say I would be breaking any law, I said I would be calling in the press to highlight the law is a complete shambles.
Using a metal detector in France is not illegal, there are restrictions on where and how they can be used. The understanding of the law I have is based on a legal interpretation carried out by the law college in Nante and not the skewed interpretation of a DRAC representative.

The OS stuff is about the analysis of data.
Your question; not very original, I think you can do better if you try to see things in a positive light.

listen very carefully I will type this only once. Detecting is not illegal in France. There are classes of objects where you need authorization to search for them. Be under no illusion this authorization is not a license but a barrier its only issued to archaeologists.

Jeez. You leave the forums for a couple of months, and what do you find when you come back eh?
Stephen Jack, to quote the linguistical luminary that is Gene Hunt, you are in our manor and our domain, so stop with the passive-aggression and the, quite frankly, disgraceful attitude. Having read this entire debacle, it seems clear that you consider yourself above discussing this with us plebs, to which I simply invite you to just hop over the Channel, get to it, and send us a postcard from La Bastille when you consider yourself willing to actively participate in an intelligent exchange of ideas.
Find us a source for the legislation you're citing and we'll talk. And no, videos from TV-un don't count.
