Disappointment - Lockdown Blues

What you feel when your mate (not in lockdown) promises to bring you a bucket of dirt to pan off at home during lockdown and it turns out to be only half a 10 litre bucket (delivered via person with travel permit) ...... even worse it contains just 1 tiny speck (good dirt my arse).

On the bright side at least he tried and it did keep me occupied for an hour or so, the effort was appreciated.
Looks OK under magnification.

Cheers T.

He had to at least leave you 1 speck. :lol:

Maybe he was speculating on it being good dirt. :Y: :goldnugget:

He tried

Effort was much appreciated, saved me raking up and going through all my old cons (use them as path between the vegetables patches) just to get my kicks.
He'll get some veggies for his effort.
Cheer T.

Not wrong I'll take anything at the moment ......

I learned a long time ago the way you tell a true prospector is they get just as excited about finding one speck as they do finding a big speck count so be excited

To keep you occupied I think you should organise all your bits of gold into a nice message to keep us all inspired until the day comes when us lockdowners can get out. layful:

Good luck DaddyD, that's just one of my little vials = 1oz. But I cheated that's SDC gold. My sluicing/panning is sadly lacking in serious weight.
Cheers T.

Can't wait until that day coming to Australia gold is waiting for me
