I received a call today from David asking if I could help locate his lost wedding ring. He had narrowed the search area down to a small stretch of beach at North Cottesloe, which is one of Perth’s popular beaches.

I headed straight down that evening to search the dry beach area but unfortunately the ring didn’t turn up in my scoop. I told David that I would hit the water at first light the following morning. David was concerned that my services was going to cost him too much money, especially as I was making a second drive to the beach, which for me is about a 60 mile/100km round trip. I told David there was nothing to pay unless the ring was found. David was blown away by this service that I offer !

Anyhow, I was back at the beach at 5am the following morning. It was a perfect summer morning for hunting, not a soul in sight and only the sounds of gentle waves and annoyed seagulls that I had disturbed from their peaceful beach.

After 7 hours of intense searching, David’s ring stubbornly refused to give up it’s location. I had dug well over $40 in Australian coins, countless pulltabs, 2 destroyed cell phones, and 2 pairs of sunglasses. I don’t give up easily but I had to admit defeat today which is something I really hate. I had covered the area really well and from different directions but this ring just wouldn’t get under my coil….gggrrrrrrrr.

David’s ring is a Japanese style ring of white gold and silver which is hammered together by hand. David has only been married 4 months and it appears that his ring was 1 size too big…..a hard lesson to learn after venturing into the water with it on for the first time.

I will keep looking for this lost ring whenever I get the chance and I am determined to see it back on David’s finger where it belongs.

Stay tuned…………
