Hi Folks Last Sunday i was hunting along a creek bank near a Pic-Nic ground. With spring rain the bank was quite slippery and sure enough i lost my footing and fell into the creek . Landed in about 5 inches of water but the rocks is what caused some serious pain. Got up to go to work Monday i felt as if i had been hit by a cattle truck . Decided not to go and rang in absent for the day .I did manage a small silver for my effort.

Well i went to work Tuesday and found this large poster on the notice board in entry . Great bunch i work with full of humour at my expense.

Disclaimer this poster is humour and not to be taken the wrong way.
:laughing7::laughing7::laughing7: The silver 1910 and nice piece of art work :laughing9: tinpan

If all it took was to fall down to find a silver coin ... I'd spend the whole day on my back! :laughing7:

Nice score with the 1910 3p!

It happens to the best of us, but I usually don't find any silver. Just look around and make sure nobody saw me bust my can.
