Good afternoon Gentlemen and Gentleladies
I've been into detecting, panning and almost into sluicing for about 12 years - not that I ever find any of the damn stuff, I reckon you guys have found it all
I also shoot feral animals and enjoy rough camping in remote parts of Victoria from the High Country to Big Desert. I have a 4WD and usually travel alone, I also have a Tirfor but don't like to wear it out so take *considerable* care not to get stuck.
I feel at peace when camped deep in the bush; taking my water from the creek and my warmth from the campfire - as a friend so aptly put it recently; "It sooths the soul".
Additionally I have an Advanced Amateur Radio licence and always take my HF radio bush to chat with friends in Oz and friends I haven't yet met across the world.
I read a lot, write somewhat less, listen to spoken word audio and spend many hours simply sitting by my campfire pondering life, the universe and everything.
Currently I live south of Melbourne but that will change over the next year or so as I sell up, buy an off-road caravan and take to the road permanently to see out the remainder of my life - I'm early sixties.
Work wise: I am an electronics/firmware engineer and have a deal of experience of most things electrical from microcontrollers to high voltage distribution systems.
When I hit the road I'll get another dog, I really miss my dog - they are excellent company - suggestions as to breed most welcome.
