How old are you ?

[Chilli]

80 and I had to figure it out. Scary! Had COVID innoculation today and blaming my bad memory on that. Not much detecting this year. Body getting too worn. But still like being out.

Good luck to you 👍

I am 50.
I am not happy about this fact as just last month I thought I was 20.

Yeah, time sure flies.
I imagine it goes really fast once you are up past 70.

77 and after a total knee replacement, a cancer removed. And a couple other modifications still love getting out and my ocd.

You and me both! I'm having so much fun!

Made the iconic transatlantic voyage Southampton to New York aboard the RMS Queen Elizabeth in February of 1952 a few days before I turned the age of 1.

Always 18 below the waist, the upper number is used to make up the difference.

I'm 61 but if you're only as old as the woman you feel, I'm 46.

Well, fifty years ago one needed a lot of patience, there were no discriminating detectors, nor were there any pinpointers so one had to dig all targets and the sift through the dirt holding handsful over the coil to find the target. You are both right though, silver all over the place, no aluminum screw tops, permissions easy to get and plenty of great relics in many places. Hunting fifty years ago was amazing!
