Jin Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 The Nugget has been found! Big thanks to the wider community, the 83 yr old owner and his wife are very, very grateful, relieved and very happy. #fb This update came from the Dalwallinu Police on Twitter 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 I didn't read the Twitter report but ... it was probably not 'lost' ... an 83 year old never forgets things now, does he??? Maybe they just have so many nuggets they didn't count all the big ones properly. The police just wanted to un-jam the roads leading to the area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madtuna Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I remember once pulling over for a piddle and as I hopped back in, lifting up my leg into the ute forced my gold bottle up out of my pocket and dropped onto the ground as I shut the door. About two days later I got a call from the fuzz saying some wonderful person had handed it. They tracked me as it was a prescription pill bottle and my name and the pharmacy was on the was on the label. There was just under an ounce in the bottle and not a bit was missing. Maybe the old guy did lose it, his age means nothing, I was mid 30's when I lost mine. What amazes me is the amount of people who think it's hilarious. On one forum some numpty exclaimed it was the funniest thing he had read all year! The poor old bugger must have been beside himself. I wonder how funny they would think it was if it happened to them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reg Wilson Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 What sort of a person would be low enough to remind an old bloke of his creeping senility? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit fast? Just a bit??!! And I thought Europeans drive fast. I didn't know you have Autobahns in NZ. No wonder your daughter prefers her mom to drive -- she could be next.
