Another group of great finds tinpan. I know what you mean about coming back from a hunt all tired and beat up. Been there many many times. But that's okay it keeps me in shape.

Best,

Badger

HI GYPSY the dirt is so black from these dumps because of fire and thats what is done for health reasons and i wish they didn,t as fire destroys a lot of the larger bottles and relics :( :( :(. most of the relics i recover are at the edge of the dump and most things in the middle totally destroyed.about 1 in 5 is not burnt thats a bonus ;D ;D ;D.
