Hello krango, welcome aboard! We only know of two metal detecting clubs in Scotland, but it would certainly be worthwhile contacting one or both of them, they may well already have members in your area!
From the Metal Detecting Clubs and Organizations In The UK (http://www.detecting.org.uk/html/Metal_Detecting_Clubs_And_Organizations_In_The_United_Kingdom.html) page:
The Scottish Detector Club, Scotland's oldest metal detecting club (founded in 1977). (http://www.scottishdetectorclub.com/index.html)
The Scottish Artefact Recovery Group[Dead Link]
Goodluck at the rally this weekend, remember, slow and low!
