G'day chchfossicker, Good on you mate. Any gold is better than no gold & that looks just fine to me. Its more than I got this weekend. Weather kept me at home after my weekends plans were shot to bits. Good luck out there

JW :)

Looks good - far better than my initial efforts! Where did you go if you don't mind me asking? Just a vague location will do ;)

good clean looking gold, not bad for less than an hours work, every little bit adds to the pile. fine gold is quite dense and pure, doesn't take long to add up. keep up the goodness,aye.

hi zimbo,

some nice gold there.

i saw you heading up the river a while back while i was up on the track walking.

i was talking in the weekend to one of your old work colleagues. he said you were still out there into it up the river.

are you active over xmas / new years? i'm keen to get some time in and try a few places if you want to head out on a trip or several.
