He has since ordered one for himself. We spoke about the laws and permit requirements which he seems to understand; however, he said he can't understand the logic behind not allowing amateur MDing. He said if it wasn't for him and his friend, the items would still be laying in the field undetected and lost to yet more generations. I completely agree and I like the British laws regarding amateur MDing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, he was telling me the land from which they found these items is owned by his friend's landlord.
