Quick update

I haven’t updated any blog posts on Adelaide Lost Ring Search for around 8 years- so probably time.

First up, yes this service is still active and I receive frequent requests for searches throughout the year. Summer and the warmer months are busy with lost rings at beaches and parks so I average around 10 searches per week while winter and cool months are quieter.

The systems and plans I use to find items have evolved over the years but fundamentals are similar and I still find great joy in returning items to people and making their day.

After all these years, and I started Adelaide Lost Ring Search in 2009 I still average around 80% success rate or 4 out of 5 searches. Sometimes it is just too hard with the client not knowing if the ring was lost at work, a friend’s house, in the car or walking the dog. Sometimes it is fairly easy and they have a solid idea where it is but just can’t find it.

Anyway, I will try to keep some content moving on this site because this is a great niche service that not many people know about.

To try and help distressed folk find this service and to help some people using metal detectors themselves for finding lost items I will start working on a Youtube page https://www.youtube.com/@shaunbranden and other avenues get the message out there.

Probably time to get out of my comfort zone and put my face in front of a camera so I can show some more folk how to efficiently find lost things. Cheers

Lost and found wedding ring in Magill

John from Magill phoned up this morning to see if I could help find his wife’s lost wedding ring. Katherine had lost the ring while gardening in the backyard yesterday and looked online for a hire detector.

The search area was about 10m^2 of lawn, a couple of paths, the green bin and 2 garden beds.

I searched 1/2 of the first garden bed first, then gridded the lawn to take that out of the equation. Next was the other half of the first garden bed (near a steel fence) and that is where I found it. Just tucked under some loose lawn clippings.

Both John and Katherine were extremely happy to have the ring back and have contacted the insurance company to cancel their claim 🙂
