I keep saying All I've got to do is walk over it. (How many miles does it take) ;D Val Title: Re: For The Newbies Post by: mucker on November 05, 2010, 05:54:07 PM Kev
I know how you feel mate.I have only just come out of hospital after having triple bypass and i have only just started the hobby.Good thing is though i am managing now to venture into the garden which is helplng my rehab. I hope that you recover soon and good luck. Regards Williap(Paul) Title: Re: For The Newbies Post by: Metalmickey on November 05, 2010, 06:02:50 PM Good luck to you Kev, great find that. Only gold i`ve found was a ladies ring & a Coin is definately on top of my "Wish list" ;)

I got quite despondent at the rally at first when all I got was junk piece after junk piece, but you learn as you go and when I found which signals were better than others on my detector, it really helped. Also, I wouldn't normally have been out on such a drizzly day but it was great being outdoors and you feel so good afterwards.
Another great find by the way. ;D |
