RR + CW = E 1.25 (Explained)

Sorry folks but I am in hurry but as you all studied maths and algebra I am sure you all understand the post.

Nobody ever took any interest in algebra, they were lessons you slept in .

I’m joining you

I was thinking along the lines of covid.
RR = the virus reproduction rate (R number)
CW = Covid something
E = 1.25 the current R number for England is 1.25.......

But I’m sure it’s nothing to do with that....

I wondered what kind of response that post would get.

Well done to all that responded.

Marley, our maths teacher was one of the best in the school ..... he was also nicknamed "Basher" so you never went to sleep in his class.

Shaggy "Roundtrees Rolo plus a Curley Wirly = €1.25", I love that, very clever.

Steve, Oxgirl, no need to place your selves in the dunces corner; not even Einstein could have worked this one out.

So here is the explanation.

Yesterday I went to what theoretically should be my best permission, but from experience I know its at best "average".

Along the top of the permission runs what is now just a little track, but it used to be a Roman Road (RR) leading to a nearby Roman Town and river crossing.

It is also close to a Civil War (CW) battle site.

The previous visits to this site have resulted in no Roman finds what so ever and a single musket ball (probably not civil war related).

I actually did find 2 coins (3 if you count a rotting decimal 2p), making it my best result there to date. They were both Edward VII (E) which was slightly unusual (they were found a bit apart so unlikely to be a purse spill). The one was a penny and the other a farthing (1.25 pence).

One of the last holes produced a glint of gold on what looked like a coin, but I knew better than to get excited and was right not to it was just a gilded button

As very many detectorists have found over the years after doing the research beforehand what theoretically should be a good site often produces very little.

Sorry the story was not more interesting.

And you haven’t shared photos Evan

P.S. so that’s why you weren’t at home

Ha Ha, I should have used lateral thinking

I even bl**dy googled it

You Googled it

So you failed to work out the connection between CW proton injectors and metal detecting ..... yep you got me doing it too.
