Hello everybody
I finally managed to purchase a notebook and get back to giving you all some cheek. I am in sunny Queensland enjoying the warmth, it is actually a little too warm in the middle of the day.[8D].
How have you been keeping, has anyone had a really exciting find lately?
We...
Hi All

You haven't posted for two days. I bet you are six foot down and onto something.
Does anybody know? I wonder what he is up to? Hmmm![;)]

Hi All
I have had some computer problems but I am back online and anxious to see what everybody has been up to. I actually took a break from office work and helped my hubbard paint an industrial shed. I know why he tolerates me so well, you have to have heaps of patience to paint, hehe.
I...
Hi All
This is a story that my daughter had found on the net and I thought it might be interesting reading for those who dive for bottles.

Think you are having a bad day?

Hi All
Whilst detecting we come across this stone. We found it near a chinese camp but believe that the Aborigines actually used it prior to the Chinese. It must have been used for grinding berries or grain. If you have any ideas of what it is or was actually used for I would love to know...
Hi All
I thought you might like to see an 1842 sixpence and a 1920 three pence. I will post some 1800 pennys in the near future. These were found while detecting over the years.

Hi All
Whilst detecting my hubby found this ring in the goldfeilds. The pattern goes right the way around, no inscriptions at all. Maybe somebody recognises the pattern or could help with the history.
Thanks

Hi All
I know there has been discussion in other sections regarding probes but no photos. A photo of some tools and a brief idea on how to use them would be great. I went prospecting today and found 4 grams of gold and dug a lot of holes. It would be nice while I am out to test for bottles...
Hi All
Well, I was packing all the bottles away but each time I find myself sitting a few aside thinking I will have to ask the forum about them.

Hi Chaser
I have been trying to get these guys to post some pics of their privies and techniques, what they use etc.. I am trying to picture how they actually do it as I am new to the game as well. I had a look at a web site that had the equipment but there was no explanation of how to use...
Hi All
Well all I can say is that you must be very patient peoples to dig bottles. I guess when you do find a privy you come back and forward over a period of time to dig the holes and find the bottles. Here is my find today, not all that impressive and I gave up after an couple of hours and...
Hi All
I am not sure if I have given this bottle the correct title but I am hoping that somebody might give some information on it. On the base is "IS" and three dots.
Thanks heaps
Kim
Hi All
I guess these maybe common considering there are six of them and a ring in minature bottle. Sooo, what were these actually used for? I am very curious, did the indians invent these? Any info once again would be appreciated.
thanks Kim
