    Came across this bowerbird party ground in the middle of 'hard to get to no where' in north queensland. About 90 mins walk from nearest road. Around the nest were bones, shells, a bullet casing and an old sardine tin! It was kind of eerie.

    Did you check inside the nest, sometimes you may find gold coins or other really interesting things..

  2. Hi Bloodgold2 ( Dave )

    i am looking forward to reading your second book, going by the reviews i read

    its sure sounds great

    More twists than the first one 

    congratulations to you and your beautiful wife ( Nikki )  for what I think will be another 

    awesome thrilling read

  3. If it wasn't for guys like you Steve! And those from the mining company It would be a very sad world.

    we would have been reading about it on the news.

    "Elderly couple perish in W.A outback due to getting bogged" ect ect

    lucky you followed your instincts and went looking for them, you could have just as easy said to yourself " oh well no one home" and left.. then checked up on them a few days later. The outcome may have been very different 

    I can understand you being very angry

    i guess you see it too many times, and you have had a gutful.. can not blame you one bit

    Fingers crossed no more dramas this year.. i doubt it though:blink:

    us grey nomads are on the move.

    People should understand WHY the pastoralist need to know roughy where we will be, in situations like this, if someone had to notify the authorities, then you guys would have an idea where to begin to look..

    they were very very lucky.

    now i will wait for your next story Steve

    you should write a book.

  4. Hi everyone

    just found this on Parks Victoria web site and thought i would share for anyone who may be interested to know

    that could be planning a trip down under

    who here in Victoria In Aussie land does the Gold Prospecting Tours 

    Even us Aussies may be interested to know who do the tours

    http://parkweb.vic.gov.au/explore/guided-tours/operators-by-activity/fossickingprospectinggoldpanning

     

    I was looking at the fees.. not cheap!

    guess these are the only gold propecting tours that have all their paper work in place

    The only ones who are licensed and insured to take people on tours.

    Be more than happy...will be bloody ecstatic if I have to dig a big deep hole!

    What happens if there is a big bit of rust, like a big bolt.. down at the bottom :rolleyes:

    often wonder how they get down that deep.

    Nah i reckon you will dig up a ripper bit of :nugget: well here's hoping 

    then your new nickname will be " Mr happy ecstatic Tuna " :biggrin:

    Yep. He had it advertised at $900 and was willing to take gold instead of cash which suited me fine. So 18 grams @ $50 per gram makes Steve a happy little tuna:biggrin:

    Good to see it worked out for you 

    So your not madtuna your happy little tuna.. cool!!  :biggrin:

    Now once you get that beast of a coil, hope you will still be a happy little tuna after digging the nice big deep holes, you will be digging.

    RR

    when we walk around the bush and see the old makeshift camps, Like the shafts they dug, all by hand, probably with a bit of help of dynamite..  BOOM!!! 

     i reckon a lot of it was hit and miss

    sink a shaft.. bugger nothing!  Sink another shaft,  they hit the motherlode

    A few would have lost everything including thier lives,

    while others did very well, only to spend it on booze and such :rolleyes:
