But I Took A Short Break From Detecting And Now I'm Just Starting Over. I Have So Much To Learn Again I Never Stop Learning Or Listening Though. Thanks JJ
What a Fabulous Day to Remember!:bow : A Huge Honey Hole and nobody but little ole you to detect it, I Love It!
Bang on about learning, Mate. I figure that when a man stops learning he's Old, not Wise just Old.
