Hi Moni,
if they won't behave, like that European team from a country starting with
"P" trampling through the gardens ploughing up the flowerbeds under the eyes
of the dumbfounded house owners, I wish all success to the American party.


============
Hello List.
Its alvays nice to comeback to home from succesfull and exciting trip and
find that You are slandered by others who are also not clean like crystals.

Yes we found specimens of this new incredible fall. Fragments from first
recovered specimens that hit iron plate. Fragments that could found
Martinsen family, people from Oslo university, Americans, Germans,
Norwegians, Swedens hunter teams and hundreds of other persons who visit
this place before we arrive. We was lucky enough to find them in area where
others walk destroying them with his shoes. Thats why we are pirats, thiefs
and bad guyz ?

When we finaly arrived into fall site of first specimen after 4 hours of
searching this place we enter into empty property of Mr Ragnar Martinsen to
make some photos of ourself and iron plate that lay on the ground. There was
NO TIME to wait for someone from Martinsen family and ASK for permission to
enter. We have only 2,5 day for hunt then some of our group must comeback to
regular work. Next day we meet Martinsen family at their house and make with
then nice long talk and ofcourse some photos with lucky finder. Norvegian
people are very friendly and Im sure it was not a problem to enter
Martinsen property in that specific case.

We look aroun forest, grass fields, streets etc. around Ragnars property,
but we
not enter into growing wheat/corn fields what do European team member from a
country starting with "G" and finaly was loudy removed by the locals
patroling this area. No comments.

I lost my will to write detailed report from our unplanned and express
hunting trip even if I finally found my first meteorite, the special one and
beautifull one as I alvays dreamed.
