hi all, im from minyip in victoria, forced into retirement very early, 20 years in the RAAF and then farming after that, now spend most of my time as a volunteer ambo in the wimmera district, wha they call a first responder, get there first and save/stabilise until the paramedics get there. my passion (my other half would say obsession) is prospecting, im back into it after about a 12 months break due to health problems, have now got a 4500 after selling the 3500, heaps and heaps to learn about this detector, but am happy and impressed with it already. hope to do a trip to WA this comming winter (havent been home for 10 years) thats about it for me, all the best, gary |
