Tuena NSW still giving

[HeadsUp]

A few more puddles are filling up.

Hi ,

is that B' ?

what size suction hose do you want ?

i have 5 metres of 1.5 inch you can have for $ 20 if you want . good PVC grey hose but i hate using it coz it wont roll up into a tight roll for carrying in my ute toolbox

also have a brass foot valve and strainer for $10 if you need that too

i paid $ 60 for them plus postage originally

i will be up that way in the next week so let me know

 

[Goldrocs]

With getting to Tuena. I'm in the Campbelltown area. To me...it makes sense going via Goulburn then the Blue Mountains. Better trip from a fuel point of view and better scenery? Would I be correct?

 

[Goldrocs]

Yes it's the way to go,......

I am not far from you and going via blue mountains is only 10 minutes difference , I think going goulburn way is better as there are more traffic lanes whereas if there is one broken down truck in the blue mountains you better start learning to play "I spy" to pass the time

When you have 10 posts you get access to messaging but make them genuine posts otherwise the little robot inside the computer comes out and puts superglue on your keyboard and thumbtacks on your chair

Which gets messy and a bit embarrassing when you're spotted walking around with thumbtacks glued to one hand and a keyboard to the other

( just kidding - some people try to make 10 posts that all say "bump" which is against forum rules)

Just to give you a headsup , tuena general store sells fuel and some grocery items but they don't open until 2 pm on some days and close at 2pm on others

There is a good campground there with toilet ( and showers that require a $1 coin )

Nice little town but there are no single women there so you need to bring your own if you have room to strap them on your roof rack

No mobile phone coverage there either

Last time I was in Tuena, some years ago(see Gem and Treasure July 1989) you had to fight off the snakes to get across the river to pick the blackberries,yummy.
Hope things have changed.
Cheers

Gemstones are more often found "down the road" at Grabben Gullen

There are massive piles of tailings to be seen there from mine workings in the goldrush days

There are areas there where copper slag was brought in as landfill so a detector will go off its nut in places

 

[1989mitty]

Don't currently have a detector , do you require one to find alluvial gold or just nuggets

 

[slowflow]

Just Nuggets as most alluvial is much finer.
