[QUOTE="loamer, post: 71950, member: 981"] Yes gentlemen - it is a great place. I was not allowed to touch the creek until I could get 8 out of 10 lead shots pieces in my pan when I was a kid. All finds were put into the old beer glass vegemite jars. I still have Pops pans and his long handled round head shovel. Still have my first gold. As a kid out there with Pop and his brothers learnt panning, dredging, how to read the creeks, map reading etc and had my first ever beer = Ballarat Bitter. If Pop and the boys let out a tirade of swearing (often) the warning was 'don't tell Nan - or I'll kick your arse'. Just the other week, I let loose a tirade after dropping my angle grinder and before I knew it, looked at my grandkids and said....... 'don't tell Nan - or I'll kick your arse'. [/QUOTE]
