Took Hunny Bunny and a pair of my Freedom 3 Plus machines for a drive down the valley. Stopped at Tim's,Hennigars and Frenchy's along the way. Then I got to stop at a school while Marie sat in the car and watched "13 to 30" on the portable DVD player. When the movie was done....so was I...

GAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Darn the super for using the whipper snipper at quarter after ten in the morning. Just got to bed at 0710hrs. Got up and saw the dishes on the counter. I have a propensity for dropping or breaking dishes when doing them. Marie has not caught on......just...

Some days are just going to be bad ones. Although I do at times take literary liberty this is how my day went without being overly melodramatic! Raining once again so I didn't bother calling Navy Davy. Did the domestics with the only casualty being a glass. Around 11am Marie came home and...

With the demands of work digging time has been at a premium to say the least. No choice as we have to fill the shifts. Of course the overtime might add that 3rd week to my UK trip. Day off and Navy Davy and I were going to hit the road for a dig but we choose not to go as the weather was on...

Was excited as I had the chance to use my birthday present on my birthday...my new coil for the pro which set Hunny Bunny back $208. When the pro is working it is a great machine. Hit a school field and the Pro worked great for ...3 minutes then shut off. Checked the connections, batteries and...

Navy Davy and I, two grumpy old men headed out for a for-ray the other day. Neither one feeling chipper, stout of heart nor lucid for that matter. Good thing about getting old is that as the mind deteriorates so you basically forget about the pain..................what your name is or where...

Busy past week with no detecting since the tic incident. French Dave and his daughter Marie Rose were up for a visit but the weather was too bad and they...too busy to do some detecting. Nice visit with everyone eating well and French Dave's daughter winning an Acadian baking contest! Of...

Oh joy! Flying to the Dominican Rep with a plane full of Saint Francis Xavier University grads. Lively to say the least. The resort was no surprise as we had stayed at the Grand Paradise before.....the bargain basement of bargain basement packaged vacations. The first 4 days After three...

My last shift before vacation last night was a tad unnerving as violence erupted not a block from my workplace on the street. Nova Scotia is not immune to what is happening in most city centers worldwide. Heard the shots , heard the car crash and heard the sirens. At the end of my shift the...

After not achieving quota on the last three digs was nice to hit the mark today! Pro was popping them. $7.61 added to the UK fund.

And it came over vast seas and oceans by packet mail. Colourful stamps graced the envelopes and were pleasing to the receiver. Four deities from a far away land inside. The British lad who had sent them had missed the Black Hole of Calcutta only to land in a watering hole in Thailand. A...

Rain! Phoned Navy Davy to see if he wanted to go for a dig to no avail. Domestics done with nothing on the tube so whatz a bouy to do but go play in the rain. Practise safe detecting and wrapped the Freedom 3 Plus up with a Glad. Hit a park close by and I'll swear I was soaked before I exited...

"W" That was the only difference between Gene Kelly and I today. He was known for his song "Singing in the Rain" while this bouy was "Swinging in the rain." Scoffed a few modern clad then went deep woods coming up with two Nova Scotia Thistle tokens (6 already this year) and a 1921 copper .

One usually associates the cost of an outing taking into consideration gas and battery money. Today was a new cost.....The Hunny Bunny factor! To get time out for a dig it usually entails doing the housework before going ...............but today she came with me and included the cost of...

Not one of the better days to go detecting with the high winds and rain.......................worked for me! Hit a park but was out of --- ---ck (luck) as I along with half the detectorists in Nova Scotia have at one time dug here. As I exited the park an 18 wheel --- ---ck(truck) kicked up...

Ize a thinking that there may be someone who could use a bit of a lesson to get in the swing of things! www.canadianmetaldetecting.com/phpBB3/download/file.php?id=53588

The precursors were there as I awoke after working yet another night shift. Physiological waste land. The pro was put in the trunk. A sudden thought ; no desire hit me to visit my Dad who had surgery last week. Nice visit. Started the trek again going via Highway 101 and there she was behind...

Makes the world go round she does! Taken when we first started dating....eons ago! http://www.thunting.com/smf/index.php?action=post;board=155.0

Put three layers of clothes on to bulk up against the chill ending up looking like the HULK. At the park it wasn't my Spidey senses that were tingling after this eyeball find but a study numbness creeping up my extremities . Where was the HUMAN TORCH when you needed him? Ground was hard with...

Tumultuous! That one word that aptly describes my attempt to negotiate some rest after a 12 hour night shift. Even before my foot touched the floor I felt it in my bones that today was not going to be a stellar one. This was reinforced as my carcass arose from the bed for at that precise...
