    Amazed corporations can get away with this

    Maybe don't rush to be too hard on them. Recently despite these profits their share prize was smashed to the tune of -35%+. They were also hacked by the Chinese. Remember also it is our money involved in the super funds which helps create the pressure on companies to increasingly make larger and...

    NSW Bushfire advice and information

    Any tips on what to carry when in the bush in case we get caught out? One of those silver reflective covers would be good to have in the kit. Are there any portable masks that can really help? One thing we could all do as prospectors is make sure to pick up any bottles we see lying around the...

    broken ankle

    Bad luck there for sure. You cant even say you had a huge stack while going flat out in the bush or show off gopro footage. I have a big bore two smoker but no worries with kickbacks as it has a decompression head mod. Not really a problem telling when the rings are worn out as they are very...

    Vic Fields - Friday 6 Sep results

    Well done on the nuggets. Shame about the long dig for zip. Win some lose some I guess. The above photo of camp is a great shot. Looks cold but what a great way to relax in the bush. Cheers

    Google Maps advice and information

    That's interesting. You say you generally hope for something to go wrong. I had a chuckle at this. What sort of things do you have in mind?

    Check yourself for Ticks

    Thanks Thesmithy, just wondering if you know where ticks prefer to lodge themselves. Also is there a topical spray one could use to repel them. I'm thinking I don't want to constantly smell like garlic and onion. can you feel ticks when they lodge themselves in. Cheers

    Hello everyone

    Thanks, I hope to find plenty also. I'm sure there is a big one out there somewhere. It would be nice but probably unlikely I will unearth it. So much land to cover!

    Hello everyone

    Thanks for the welcome everyone. Sorry I haven't been around. I forgot my pass word to this site but also my email account. I haven't had it long and it's a hushmail account which works by a multiple word pass phrase with numbers and capitals. There is no way to recover it if you forget. I had...
