Today I BOUGHT

[loamer]

Today I bought five second-hand gold books that may be of interest to Vic goldfield prospectors.

Grapes and Gold - Glimpses of Early Great Western (as in the Great Western vineyard region out near Ararat/Stawell Vic) - Kuehne
A Difficult Case - Autobiography of Jong Au Siug (A chinese miner around Dunolly) (with Moore and Tully)
The Central Goldfileds - Bendigo/Castlemaine and Neighbourghood - Forster
Nothing but Gold - the diggers of 1852. - Annear
Victorian Gold Rushes - Bate

A difficult case also shows and discusses Siug's maps as he tended to flip north/south - south/north. Hard to read at first but the book explains all. As they say, time spent in reconnaissance is never wasted.

If you cant fix it with gaffer tape and a hammer its obviously an electrical problem.
1000mile /hour tape has to be ground off with a grinder its used on aircraft and will take skin off. You probably have hundred mile an hour tape

Duct tape and fencing wire. A complete Aussie tool kit.
