Well the summer here just aint happening, wind, rain, fog, I've never known it so bad. The beaches are almost empty, and everyone is depressed and hacked off.
Went to do the low tide anyway today, fired up the GS5, put a waterproof coat on (to cover the control box mainly), and started to grid the wet sand, 2 hours and no targets, was getting mighty miffed, then a little double blip, just great, a hairpin i thought, but no, it was a little silver earing in the shape of a cross. But silver is silver, and more welcome than a hairpin.
Another 30 mins passed until the next signal, huge response from the GS5, very strong, so knew it was shallow, and there was my first Tungsten ring, 12.27 gr and actually not a bad looking ring, lovely lustre to it, and it was a ring.
So no gold, but I did snatch a ring from what was an absolutly horrible day.
Let's just hope for some sun and golden donors.
