:lol: This is her quote.
Janene says that the romance has ended in her eight-year marriage because her husband, Arvine, would rather look for "junk" with his metal detector than have sex with her.


Now, I don't want to appear sexist, but after having looked at her photo I can only note this observation - If she was my missus, I would probably spend a wee bit of time out detecting as well. (Probably straight down the Newbridge Hotel and try and detect a trade-in)> !! I am sure she is a lovely person.

:lol: I ain't commenting on that

Think of it though this guy has done 14 hours a day for years, must have a pretty serious treasure stash he's hiding from the missus.

Though page 2 of the interview says he may have a little bit of a problem with OCD and detecting.

"I got fired from a job because I came back a couple hours late all dirty and muddy from lunch from having been out detecting metal"

Classic.

he is looking for junk and she is eating junk food for 12 hours a day

Is there something wrong with detecting 14 hrs a day?

HAHAHA. done that myself many times, thinking '' that next site has to be better''. harder now to find many good sites that are'nt '' fished out''.
I know GOOLWA and the area very well, tho never hunted there. it is a very rich historical area. hope to see some great finds from you. cheers.

WITH Maccas next door, and Dunkin' donuts across the road, no mirrors in the house, what's the problem ?

Not if you are a serious prospector there isn't. 14 hours x 7 days a week on an historical producing area? I think the odds would be stacked in your favour.

The first step is admitting the problem. This is me the hour before work in my work clothes (nice retail outfit) after digging a juicy spot ive had my eye on in transit for a few weeks. Reached over the top of the detector to grab the classifier and pan with suffer in the top, I take these literally everywhere. I'm typing this in the car park. ... Hello Dr Phil? I was wondering if you could help. ......

Hmmm - the underlying theme here is indifference or hostility shown from a better half. (note I did not say women). Having divested myself of all that partner nonsense I have found that Max my dog does not seem to mind what I do, where I go or who I see. He also is quite interested in any new equipment and usually shows his appreciation and welcoming nature by piddling on any new gear. He is also fond of licking his ass and also the location where his knackers were previously located and rolling in dead 'roos. Mind you, he never whined or bit me when I had to stitch him up once way out scrub once. Now, find a 'partner' who can do all that??

The husbands rings the wife and says'' quick, pack your bags,you're going on a trip, I've struck the mother lode at last.''
she asks,'' what shall I pack for ,warm or cold ?
he answers '' I don't care, so long as you're out by noon.'' :lol:

My wife doesn't try to restricted me to go prospecting. Sometimes she and kids go along to look for sapphires. Although prospecting doesn't interest her much, she never objects to me doing it.

My wife reckons I'm a *******, I reckon she's a bitch....

She then lets me go detecting.....

Then phones me up to ask what I found, are we rich yet.....

Go figure !!

(PS I'm only joking darling)

I've always maintained that my wife will let me do whatever she wants !!!
