The lovedoc and myself , week before last detected in the rain, hail, and gales, really soaked through to the skin, but enjoyed though  Grin
Only problem was, Doc's detector died on him, damp me thinks, and i got the flu and bad chest infection,  Grin
But guess what Kev mate, we would do it all again, love detecting, had a great time  Smiley

I'll be out tomorrow come rain or shine, fed up with only seeing the inside of a kitchen or making headphones, just hoping for more than buckles.

use cling film under your normal covers and you can stay out all day with no fear of the damp stuff getting in the machines electrics.

Unfortunately i have not got a machine to go out with at the mo, rain or shine  Sad
