[QUOTE="boobook, post: 338151, member: 1605"] Very much reminds me of when Chris (my brand new missus) and I were packing up in Bathurst and moving to the Central Coast. As a solo prospector I had accumulated quite an amount of mineral samples including about a kg. of best light blue sapphire from Porters Retreat. These were safely stored, mixed with mud, in a coffee jar on a kitchen shelf with a "wandering jew" growing in it. The packing and moving was a quite hurried affair and when we arrived at our new place in Empire Bay I suddenly thought.....now where is the wandering jew? On enquiring of Chris....yes, its wrapped up in some wet newspaper ready to put into a vase. Oh, but what about the coffee jar it was in...... couldn't see any point keeping it so chucked the "gravelly mud" out and put the jar in the bin. :o What was that Ned Kelly comment again? 8.( Mike [/QUOTE]
