Hi Chris
Maybe you should be thinking about one of these, grab from youtube so quality pretty stink but it's 13 detectors in a row, could be handy for Hagley!
Now which one sounded? And how do I pinpoint hmmmmmm



Haha I remember watching these vids on youtube and then i became friends with the young lass who was involved as she has the nicest set of large tits I've seen in a long time and she loves showing them off...Decima is her name worth a google if like me you like titties. Ok titties and detectors.

Well did a bit of a hunt with a guy from work that bought an F2 of robert...didnt get alot as i was teaching him...But true to my
SILVERBUG i got a silver pendant/necklace bit...unfortunatly one of the two glass pieces in it was cracked and i was getting shards of glass in my fingers so i took it out.not sure if i cracked it with the knife or if it was like that in the ground..but oh well..it is still 925 silver.

the last picture is of a small sword Pin i got while hunting with robert in Orari at a picnic

Would have been great if I was still in Chch for after work hunts PB, I used to work just behind Rabo Bank on Deans ave!
Also I reckon we should be getting a commission from Robert with the people we have been referring to him lately *8^)
j/k Robert but next time you see Lammerlaw maybe you could chuck a Lesche digging tool over the fence for me! *8^)

Forgot to add this bottle...also found it at the grones...was about 5 or 6 inches deep and i didnt break the bottle.

As you can just see in pic 3 it still has a tiny bit left in the bottle..but boy does it stink when i took the lid off for a smell..hahaha

Nice sixpence!

I pulled a pocket watch and two rings out of Hagley on Saturday. All plated and crap. And no silver coins at all. Grumble grumble. Must have been a spot frequented by tightarses.
