Thank you so for the great effort to show us the way.
Thanks for an awesome bit of scouting!!! See you all on the Saturday.
Thats a good reconnaissance mission. Packing tent now on that info. Thanks lyn8curt.

I would like to thank PMAT for the field trip to tobacco creek and for the membership yesterday. had a great day and like to thank all the members there as well very warm and friendly bunch. I come home with good half gram or more for my days efforts so thank once again and will see you all again at the Hazelwood cheers
Thanks mate, it was great to see a few new faces and good to see that a few people found gold, even one detector nugget, even if it was small.
If anyone got any pictures, feel free to share them here!
No pics but had a very enjoyable , and back breaking day ! Thanks to everybody involved in organizing a ripper of a day . I think my son is now hooked on gold rather than relics .
Curt i looked up the hallmarks of the pocket watch, 1880 swiss omega made for export to britain. thanks for the advice.cheersNigel
Wow that’s interesting ! My old eyes thought they could see the lion passant symbol , did the poms re stamp ? 1880 , nice find . Now you will have to go back and find the rest !
it was handed down from my mum.
My bad , i remember you telling me now !
Had a great day, new ground (for me), new faces, new plants (Cyathea sp. tree fern) and perfect weather.
Glad colour was found by most, including a couple of little nuggets.
Thanks to Ron for access to the lease and Miguel for preparing maps etc.

Looks like an amazing trip sadly had to go to Hobart while this one was hopeully next time
I hope everyone had a great Christmas, question regarding our last trip and sorry it has taken me this long but for some reason I managed to pick up a second shovel that looks exactly like the one I have that I mistakenly picked up thinking it was mine didn’t relise till I got home back to Hobart. If it was you that’s missing it come and see me at the next meet in Feb at our AGM.
Oh my god you found it is it a Saxon? Long handle round mouth shovel brand new it was its first day out
hahaha yup that’s the one, I have the exact one too. lol
Haha I was Devo when I realised it was gone so went a got another one the next day
Just wondering if I needed permission from anyone to go back to tobacco creek for a bit of a play
