I'm going try to get up there next year if it's on again. Looks fun.

So who's the new world champion??

They are talking of running an event in each state. Looks like a top weekend

I somehow think that the world's best detectors were not in Gympie last weekend.

Na, I was deep in the forest detecting and panning.
Did they have champions from all countries pitted against each other or was it a bunch of weekenders from within travelling distance talking it up. But Aquachigger was there. Hope all who attended had fun. Back to the forest, hunting thru old workings exposed by fire.

I'm sure a lot of man hours were put into organising this event so kudos to that.

We are all "world champion" detectorists in our own minds. :trophy:

How many did the Russians send and what detectors were the Chinese using? Did Jamaica have a team and how'd the Poms cope with the heat?

 

[Gimp]

Jamaicans forgot, Russians have drug ban, Chinese were at some parade
