XD yeah, might go prospecting in our creek (its man made in Canterbury so no gold) just because I put some conctrate through the sluice once and I might find a spec or two I lost lol.

Me too. I would love nothing more than to jump in my truck & drive off to go detecting. I know I can go to numerous places & would not see another soul all day.

Hope you aren’t showing any symptoms from your “visit” to Auckland. :grimacing:

Beautiful day to be up the hill today too…bugger. :cry:

Maybe when this is over?

The moment it is over - I had a cold before and went there and still got it but no bad bugsies - nothing that fly spray wont cure. I came down last night and escaped any of the places of interest by a wide margin as I was more or less stuck at friends homes ‘socializing’. The only place of interest I went was MY place of interest.

I am ready to go any time you want.

Thank you so much Lammerlaw, I was wondering how to get this information.
I would be happy to return it to his family if they can be traced.
Cheers P
