East of England Commercial Artefact Hunting Rally Organiser

Another group exploiting the British archaeological record for personal financial gain is EAST OF ENGLAND RALLIES Metal Detecting Events:
Cheryl and Adrian Dawes at East of England Rallies pride ourselves on organising weekend events specifically aimed at the serious detectorist. The detecting is the main focus and to that end we don't have a beer tent , live music and the proverbial in a brewery. That's not to say that we don't enjoy ourselves. We have been organising digs in Norfolk since 1991 and strive to offer the best detecting land available on the many estates that we use. We aim to have several weekend digs throughout the year that run from Friday lunctime through till Sunday afternoon so if you fancy joining our happy friendly group then please get in touch.
Apparently (why?) the same setup has been operating concurrently under the name of "East Anglian Diggers" which they used for "Small Sunday Digs". It seems they have now stopped using that name ("all future events will go under East Of England Rallies"). The next event of EOE is the 'Merton March Dig 2023':
Our first WEEKEND dig this year is on the weekend 4th - 5th March Comprising mostly fresh stubble fields which we haven't detected previously together with a selection of ploughed land. There will be limited places for this event so as to allow comfortable detecting for involved. Ticket price for the weekend is £60 for each person [...] Adrian can be contacted at: celticgold49@[****] [photo] Adrian standing in hole left by exploded grenade.
