Looking forward to this w/end as we have a couple of newbies coming to Tennant to go for a swing with us. Our group on facebook is still growing with 30 members now and i got an email from our newest member who lives 700km north in Katherine saying that him and his mate from Canberra have bought a 5000 each and have absolutely no experience apart from a short period 30 years ago with one of the first detectors ! Haven't fired them up yet ! His mate is driving up to Katherine and then they are driving down to spend a few days here and asked if myself and Dale can take them out and show them how to use their machines. After pondering the question for a long period of time (100th / second) i eventually agreed ! Both myself and Dale are at the stage now where we always come back with a bit of colour and know our machines really well so feel comfortable with taking others out and making sure they get a little bit of gold as well. I will of course twist their arms up their backs while they are here and refuse to take em out til they join this forum !. John the bloke from Canberra obviously doesnt know anyone there so i was wondering if Wal n Liz could send me info on any groups , clubs etc he can get in touch with for advice and a bit of mentoring etc. There is no better feeling than helping out someone new to this addiction and knowing you are going to help them find their first bit of gold !
