6.30am
9 degrees, clear sky. Put the heater on.
7.30am
up to 14 degrees so we got up for breakfast! The wind is blowing clouds over us
again from the south east.
Tried
another spot for detecting – not even any rubbish.
Home
for a nice warm lunch of soup, griddle scones and a toasted wrap. The cold
weather is bad for our waistlines.
After
lunch we tried one last time at Ray and Carol’s area. Ray had put on a chain
and gridded it to make sure he hadn’t missed any since we got those two
yesterday. All gone now. I did manage to ping a tiny bit on the slope when I
stopped to listen to a sound – it sounded like a vehicle but it was the wind
working its way through the tree tops. When I put the detector down I got the
signal and out came a little bit of gold. I gridded around the area and only
found a lead shot and thin bits of wire so I was lucky to find that bit.
Back
to the van for smoko and a few games of Skipbo.
The
sky cleared as Steve got the fire going for drinks. Ray and Carol were cooking
inside tonight so we sat by the fire while our dinner cooked in the camp oven
with our ‘lovelies warmers’ heating up our backs. Steve spotted one satellite
slowing going across the sky.
Cold
evening, 15 degrees in the van when we went in for dinner so we put the heater
on. Watched one episode then heated up the shower cubicle before we went in for
our showers. Very nice. So glad I put the flannelette sheets on the bed!
