Quiet in the Forum Lately
It's been a bit quiet lately and I wonder why maybe everyones out finding GOLD
Or maybe we are spending our time researching areas for our next outing
I can't speak for anyone else but I've certainly been trolling and annoying someone with questions Ya gotta learn about areas you haven't been to.
What has everyone else been up too :?:

Research research research and gettin a bit as well, gold that is.
Found some good info last few days from diggin into CWA "Country womens association" archives,
turns out they used to do tea and sugar drives for the hard up diggers in the depression years
and they have some good info on 1930's rushes and areas, funny where the info can come from.
Also look up Geo Cashing websites, funny buggers who like to run around with just a GPS lookin for lunchboxes
with trinkets in em, but they get into some far off places and find old lost diggings..
Another one is the Royal automobile associations, they used to do group runs out to old patches for the hell of it
just like today's 4wd clubs do.

Hey Pete:
Pretty much just research for going up to the cooler areas of Az.
Its toooooo hot in the desert and wont cool off until around late Sept.
Suppose to be 108F today.
Pops and I should be going up north for a day trip in a couple of weeks.
Dad found one of those Geocache things when we were out detecting one time. We couldnt figure it out until someone told us what it was. Doh!
Taker easy.

Not much different here. Going out every two days or so. Wifey pulled a nice 3.5 grammer yesty. Nearest digging are 300 metres away. Hopefully back again today weather permitting.
I'm rebuilding a motor for the zuke. I want a spare on the shelf because the motor in it now is starting to get a bit tired.

G'day Tom
Mate you'll both be sleeping in real comfort in that new rig of yours now, i hope you get
the top bunk because I've been scared for life by having an old prospector with a gut fulla
beers and BBQ sleep above me, and i can tell you it wasn't a pretty sight

Re: Quiet in the Forum Lately
Good tip Gus. I never thought about carrying my hip flask
I'll put it in the battery pouch with a few tinnies now that I've got the coiltek battery set up

Re: Quiet in the Forum Lately
Bejesus,you wouldnt need Beer Goggles drinking with those 2 stunners.
Luv the Camo six pack holder,would be sweet if they made one with a battery pouch.
I reckon I might doctor a stubby holder up for the hip flask, Cliff. Should take the sting out of those goldless days

Re: Quiet in the Forum Lately
These 2 oldies from the East are camped on a 20a in a bit of scrub SE of Laverton.
Beaut open camp spot, catches the sun in the morning, plenty of good firewood (cool evenings,eh).
The best bit is since arriving here on Thursday is there are now 18 nice little nugs rattling around in the jar.
All from within around 75m. of the camp, going over the area with a fine tooth comb!
For a couple of newbies we are bloody stoked
Mike (& Chris)

Seeing it is quiet at the moment, thought I'd play with my balls
I always play with them a few weeks before I get the chance to do some detecting. It's good exercise for the arm and shoulder muscles, just squeeze ya balls hard :rolf:

Re: Quiet in the Forum Lately
Hey Tom & Pops
Maybe this trip to Rich Hill could be the finding of another GOLDEN DIAPER claim
All the best to both of you and hope you get a few "ground nuts" for the trip
