Hi guys, Went out for a detect after work last night. Didnt get much time in as it started to rain & I bailed. Managed two small bits for only .72 of a gram. The bigger bit was .5 & was on the very edge of a cliff drop off wayyyyy down to the river. I had to be very careful what I was doing. A: Not to fall off & B: Not to lose the target over the edge. If my wife had of seen me she would have gone mental.
Had a dusting of snow on the Remakables today. So a bit chilly.
