LOL I think that if this eye of mine could function properly again I would feel 95% better. I'd like to be able to go detecting but it gets so damn frustrating at times with this eye and the grass is long where I can go detect (It really needs to burn) I think that I should move to Cape Town nice beaches to detect all year round.

Good vision and moist eyes are always a plus. After your radiation treatment, you probably won't ever need a torch (flashlight) ever again to see at night. The locals will write ghost stories about you.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

Late winter Early spring things should be a lot flatter.

Don't you just love it when google earth shows a burnt or short field but when you get there it's like Elephant grass(Exaggeration).
