On the back cover:
As more and more people feel the urge to possess objects of age or beauty, so the pieces of antiques soar beyond the pockets of many people. Bottles, however, have remained comparatively inexpensive. In Victorian times our forebears packed everything from tea to hair restorer in glass bottles, and they discarded them with their household refuse. In rubbish dumps all over Britain these bottles are waiting to be dug up, each non-machine-made bottle a collector's item. This book describes the development of bottles of all sorts and illustrates over two hundred examples.

ON/OFF Switch for Garrett Pro-PointerIt is extremely useful that spare parts for the Garrett Pro-Pointer can be purchased at Regton Ltd. I still have the MK1 and have used it very frequently for the past 7 years. When the on/off switch of the probe broke down, I bought the electronic component of switch together with the rubber on/off switch button and speaker vent. It is not a straightforward job to replace the electronic component on the printed circuit board and to reassemble the probe afterwards. Luckily there is a lot of information available on youtube channels on how to do this. For very little money, my Pro-Pointer now works again like a new probe. For those of you who are not so keen to spend a couple of hours on this, Regton staff can service the Pro-Pointer too.Henry2322 -

charging clipDeus XP charging clip. Work perfectly well but personally I feel that the contact pins are too flimsy and easily displaced or broken. As it's the only way to charge the coil then you have no choice but to keep on buying this product. Service from Regton is second to none. Thank you.joe90
