7.30am
16 degrees, clear blue sky. Didn’t get as cold as we thought it might. Weather
forecast was for a cold change and more rain but maybe we are far enough north.
Steve
and Jeff headed off detecting. I went for my hour walk along the track
listening to Mamma Mia.
Made
a cuppa then the wind came up, flapping the awning around. Steve came back to
check on things and hand over his earnings for today!! 3 nuggets, one was 0.6
grams and altogether they weighed 1 gram. Yeah, let’s hope this keeps up.
Steve
back for a late lunch with another two nuggets, total of 0.4 grams this time.
Jeff found a small rock that made loud noises and when he hit it with a hammer
there was a nugget inside. He will crush it when he gets home to see how much
fine gold is also in the rock.
Lyn
and I played Sequence and chatted as the wind howled outside. Clouds are
heading towards from the south-west.
A
few drops of rain hit the van as it got darker around 4pm.
Steve
came back with another two nuggets, 0.7 grams total so his total for the day
was 2.1 grams. Jeff found a nice bigger one, probably about 2 grams.
We
bunkered down in our vans as the wind and light rain rattled us. Lucky I still
had stew leftovers.
Watched
a movie and a bit more of the Breaking Bad series to pass the evening away.
