hey there fellas, I originally came from Perth but been living in Victoria for yonks. Have become a specialist in Jesuits who were in Australia for nearly 2 centuries on the
quiet. I didnt realize how much languages change. I was e mailed by a woman in the USA several weeks ago who wanted to know what 'fortnight' meant.

[Salvager]

The language differences never cease to amaze me!!!
My brother talks to alot of yanks and apparently he can't get them to understand meat pies or kebabs Not to mention them not having a word for 'bogged'.

Jesuits in Australia ay-sounds interesting!!!

Great to hear from yet another Aussie-Keep 'em coming people!!!

Have fun,
Salvager

If you dont mind digging at night. Pic is of a jesuit Marker tree near Melbourne. There are stacks on Sydney and melbourne Beaches and there has been posting recently of pics taken in Queensland of Jesuit turtle backs inland 2 hours driving from the coast. Max

Churchill said that the brits and the americans are two peoples seperated by a common language. I say that the canuckistans, the aussies and the americans are divided from the english by ability to drink warm beer. aussie aussie aussie oy oy oy. That seems to mean Go Aussie Go after watching Joe Hachem on the World Poker Tour. First time I heard it I thought they were cheering for Mel Judah and it was aussie yiddish. LOL. exanimo, siegfried schlagrule

I was just demonstrating some of the coloquialisms around here. When two Aussies are communicating with each other I don't know half of what you are saying and I'm sure the same applies here. Monty

 

[Salvager]

Irecently of pics taken in Queensland of Jesuit turtle backs inland 2 hours driving from the coast.

I'm interested!
Even just for a sticky beak!!!
Could you please send me some info?

Thanks,
Have fun,
Salvager

Good to see some other Aussie blokes on ere. Been watching and reading TN for some time and it's a bloody ripper website and I just became a member. I live in Rockhampton, in sunny Qld ( Go the maroons ). Am hoping to make some md trips up to Mt Morgan in the near future (lots of gold, relics and of course hillbillies ) Bonza to see we got Oz represented.
Happy Hunting

Great to see another canetoad on the forum! Was getting abit worried about all the southerners!

Do you detect the beaches up there (all them tourists ) ??

I hear you even have rain up there!!!!!! WOW!

Have fun,
Salvager

 

[Yarrum]

We have had a bit of rain, was a bloody miracle. Bit worrying with the eastern states in the worst drought on record.
I live in Rocky about 30 minutes from the beach at Yeppoon, heaps of good beaches down there. Hav'nt found anything of value yet but hadda lotta fun.
I work as a pawnbroker and I had one old bloke that used to come in with a tupperware container full of rings, old, recent etc.
He lived down at the beach and used to detect but only at night when people would'nt bug him and see what he was up to I guess.
He only ever sold a couple when he needed a little cash but two that I remember were one that was a tiny size (a ladies I guess) but fairly heavy and inside had the old english makers marks etc. Would have loved to know the history of it. The other I remember was a large mans ring, very heavy in 9ct gold with what he told me was a doctor's emblem on the face. Quite cool.
Hopefully he left me some to find
Anyway HH
go the broncs tomorrow night

Kia Ora from Mike, I respect this site - and it's bloody good, to see some of my Aussie neighbours, enjoying the pleasure of treasure.
I've grown up reading Treasure Island and moved on to sunken Spanish ship documentaries and beyond.
I admit to a strong Aussie bond

My Mum
was raised near Bondi
Her Mum and Dad buried somewhere in Sydney. I never met them - not yet
Too many treasures to find

There's also some time left (about 80 years I reckon) before I meet my Uncle Jack (John)
took his last journey on HMS Centaur

I find treasures above ground, so far
yet to buy an MD
but that might not be too far away

Yet

How do you say unfortunately - NZ was not blessed with an iron age -

I have to say - this site is superb
and ANZAC friendly

 

[Yarrum]

Great to hear from ya Mike 'oh Kiwi neighbour of ours . Welcome to TN, she's a ripper site I haven't been a member that long myself. Always useful information and great stories.
You'll have to get yourself a md, truly awesome fun.
Anyway again, welcome aboard, and

HH

 

[trikikiwi]

Mate, Yarrum! Thanks for your welcome. Kia Ora. I'm thinking more seriously about buying an MD machine. I look forward to sharing 'me found treasures' on this site
Cheers, Mike

 

[mercinarie]

hey i havent been on for a while but does anybody know of any treasure stories in western australia, because as fas as i know western australia is the the most boring state ever.

 

[Yarrum]

Found a couple of stories of treasure being found over there but nothing that is still undiscovered. Try and google a couple of different word combinations and see what comes up.

Good luck

 

[Salvager]

Ah-mate not boring at all. I read about quite a few shipwrecks laden with gold/coins all over the WA coast.
There are many stories of survivors and such. All of this is prime treasure ingredients! If your library has copies of Australian Gold Gem and Treasure that may help you.

Hope that helps,
Salvager

P.S.
With that much gold there has to be treasure stories!!!
