Title: Saying hello Post by: Alcohol on March 14, 2009, 09:11:39 AM Hi there - just thought I'd stop by and say hello!
I'm Allan - from North Wales - and I first started detecting in the late 70s / early 80s. (Yup - I've still got an old 'pipe finders' licence somewhere to prove it!!!). I was also a member of the Historical Search Society in Mold for a few years in the 80s - so Hi to anyone that remembers me... Haven't been 'pipe finding' for about 5 years now - but the good news is that I've recently changed jobs, changed address, and changed wives (er... that's not plural btw!), and as a result I now have chance to take up this wonderful hobby once again! My old but still excellent Tesoro Toltec is still with me... but after some research I've just invested in a Minelab Explorer II to do a litle beach detecting as well (anyone here care to comment on the Explorer other than it's a little heavy?) Also - is there anyone here from the Gwynedd Recovery and Search Society, or North Wales Metal Detecting Club? If there is, I'd like details please Allan BTW - Alcohol = ALlan COmes from HOLywell (just in case you were wondering!)
