Ever wondered about the possibility of a parallel universe existing? One where instead of being the detectorist digging up municipal parks, playgrounds and gardens you were the guy patching up the holes afterwards.
For the next 6 or so months I am that guy.
Here I am documenting separately from my detecting finds my ‘on the job finds’ and sadly I cannot take my detector along for lunch breaks.
So far this week I have found 20c while raking trash out of the municipal goldfish pond and $2.10 in playground bark and a very nice beer Stein.
Surprisingly there is a process for reuniting errant beer Steins with the appropriate honky tonk bar.
Also found this beautiful birds nest fungus in the middle of a main street garden.

This week’s eyeball finds- A hot wheels and
another 40c from playgrounds, 50c from the shrubbery in front of the Squash club, and what I can only assume are 2 upcycled mini watering cans which went in the landfill.

Haha. Uncycled mini watering cans…yer right. Billy the bong…Came across a few of those up in the sand dunes detecting Whangamata & Waihi Beach back in the day. Also detected what looked like tiny peace pipes…

Sorta forgot to keep this up to date.
Long story short new corporate mob won the contract and have taken me on full time.
The crap I find rattle gun sockets. Cellphones, expensive sunnies, cash… Jumped out of truck today and found a $5 note just waiting for me.
