May be it nothing special, but it does have a spot in my heart
It came from under a foot of mud and river gravel after many trips to that exact spot

G'day and welcome River digger,

That is a very nice bottle and hard to get too. I presume you are in Australia ? if so what state do you dive in if you don't mind me asking ? A lot of my bottles I get out of creeks and rivers too.

G'day Irish
Yes I'm Australian
I'm a Victorian, near Benalla.
I haven't tried dive yet just wading and probing up to about five feet deep. I also got the Wilson Crosbie & co also listed in the prize possessions in the same river. Which I believe is a early Melbourne bottle.
I'm going out later today so I hope to be able to add more to the site.[]

Have fun digging
Brad

Don't give too much away Brad, we will all be rushing up your way ourselves.

Mostly pretty slim pickings
Today 0 bottles (old ones any way) for many hours work

Better luck next time

Hi Riverdigger, your last post really hits home. Like Carmo and Irish, I am also an Aussie digger, hailing from Adelaide. I dig a dump about half an hour's walking distance, daing from 1920 to 1960.

Mostly slim pickings, as you said. I have yet to dig any Codds.

Cheers,

Tandy

I dug with Carmo about a year ago at a freinds house. I wasn't all that well then, but we had a good day.

Yeh I remember that Brad, it was a good day. Think I might owe you a bottle or two.
Hopefully I will be doing a bit more digging when I get home from Tassie, say g'day to Tom for me.

No worries Carmo
