7.30am
24 degrees, warm night – all the windows and vents open. Clouded over but only
thin clouds.
Cuppa
time and the clouds are parting and the sun is out again. Lyn and I had a few
games of Yahtzee. Using sheets that I made when I worked at BSES and played
with Yanneke – only 30 odd years ago!!
31
degrees at midday – only a light breeze from the west. Jeff got a nice little
nugget but Steve only found rubbish. He went over where he found the ‘big’
nugget, just to make sure. He dug down to find the drill hole which the nugget
was about 6 inches away and about 8 inches down.
He
dug a nice hole down to find this number plate all folded up – strange!!
We
had bought a new aerial but the radio still doesn’t work and Jeff can get it so
Steve pulled the aerial off and found out the cable was cut off below it!!
Joined it up and now we have Meeka FM and the ABC. At least we can get the news
and weather now.
Boys
went out again. Lyn & I were getting the fire going when a chap walked over
the hill. Jeff had left his genie going to charge up with batteries and the guy
heard the genie and came over to investigate. He and his brother are waiting
till their E40 permit is approved to go detecting there.
Boys
back, this time Steve brought back a little one. Didn’t register on the scales
so probably only 0.1g but it’s gold. Back to the end of the finger photos!!
Lovely
sunset – looks like that’s where all the gold is.
Perfect
temperature for the evening again as we chatted around the fire enjoying the
stars.
Mum
and Dad rang as they had been reading my blog and saw the photos of Steve’s
‘rock’.
