Title: New from Piketberg (Piket-Bo-Berg)
Post by: Quicksilver on April 29, 2014, 08:41 AM

Hi everyone, my name is Wikus Nel(Quicksilver), i'm' a "Afrikaanse boertjie", so please excuse my spelling. I live on top of Piketberg mountain on a farm (Manager, not owner)with a very rich history (pre 1900). I bought myself a second hand Garrett Ace 350 and have been swinging / digging the last 2 week-ends like cracy! I was so stiff on Sunday that i had to took 2 Disprin tablets! Well i did manage to find a old harmonica reed, 1961 half cent, 3x old toy cars, a fingerhood, 2 x St Christopher pendants and a truck load of trash!!!
I would appreciate any tips.

Cheers for now.

Ps: Congratulation on a great Forum!

Welcome Wikus!  I suggest that you get more tablets, because at this point I think you are hooked!
