beepinpete_WA Posted February 19, 2012 Report Posted February 19, 2012 Went up to a property yesty near Gingin way, and won a few small ones, my 1st time on hisbush block so i'm pleased that the homework came up trumps, right from the start the geo-mapsaid maybe gold, but once i actually went up there and asked for permission the bloke told me ofsome 1930s fellas who his dad knew and they had got a small bit or two, so i was stoked whenme & the old 5k started pullin a few.18 bits for a Total Weight 7.7grams, scans up at 97.6%Largest one 4.1grams "Finger of Hope" Not a bad way to spend an arvo i must say.Cheers Anthony for lettin me on your block mate Pete

Gonna go up and hit the "other" golden diaper wash this weekend Heck, 104F is nice here in the summer. I usaully start crawling under rocks when it gets up above 112.Dont think we got as much bugs as you do though. I remember on day I had to work launching jets when it was 121F. Probably 130 on the flight line with all the jets running. Lordy....I felt like a roasted potato! We might be in for a heck of a summer this year. Our winter has been very mild.It is a dry heat though, until around July/august, then it gets humid with the monsoons. Not fit for man or animal then.Taker easy and geet some gold!Tom H.
