After returning from my OE stint (lived in London UK for 2.5 years), I was talking to some fella at a party. He too had just returned. I asked him what he did over there, he replied begging. He mentioned he was averaging 20 pound per hour, just sitting by a tube station in the city with a sign...

I live in North Lakes, about 20 Km north of Brisbane, didn't feel a thing. Other people in the area claimed they did. I been through a few quakes while living in Wellington NZ. Luckily they were generally short.

I too tend to use the DD coil, even on the beach (just have to remember it is not waterproof like the centric coil).

Price looks very appealing as well

Hi all I have a duel battery system in my patrol. At present it only powers a 45 L fridge when I go camping. We are going to Stradie in December and there is no power at the site. I was wondering if it is worthwhile getting a cheap sine wave inverter from evil bay to charge up a a couple of...

My youngest son got a tick a few months ago. I managed to pull it out using pointy tweezers (the first tick ever). I was surprised on how hard I had to pull to get it out. Next time I will try the soap soaked cotton ball mentioned above. I now spray the boys now before we head out.

Interesting there John Just out of interest how much does it cost for the material to print up something like the hand?

I like the idea of a portable BBQ (for frying/grilling/roasting), however I was wondering if any able to heat a billy of water for dishes/tea/etc. If so how long does it take. I find that the single burner stoves do take a while.

Thanks elrodeo, I will check it out

HI all Family and I are heading to Levuka park near Urbenville , Northern NSW for the long weekend. I was wondering if anybody has suggestions on places to prospect/pan that are close by. I noticed there are some state forests nearby where you can go with a permit. thanks in advance nev

Hi all. I was wondering if purchasing a double d coil for the minlab xterra305 will improve finding things on beaches and in parks? I did see a 10'' one recently on eBay. I was also thinking in 12 months or so of upgrading to the 705 so would be compatible. Thanks in advance Nev

Thanks for that Wooster. That will be handy on the beeches. Cheers nev.

Hi all, I live approx. 20 km north of Brisbane (North Lakes). At present I (I mean my son) has a Minelab X-terra 305. I too am keen for any trips. I realise the 305 is more suited for beaches and parks (and have fun hunting coins etc), but am willing to give other areas a try. Quick...
