Haha - some would say that that was a "cheap shot" BUT I won't :) The IOS hasn't crashed - it could be a compatiblity issue when looking across the devices affected. just a glitch, "she'll be right mate" and it will be 👍👍

No joy ….. the app was stable on the Victorian gold map until deciding to select satellite imagery causing the app to immediately crash. I now have the same behaviour as I initially reported.

24 hours on I decided to deleted and reinstall the app and all seems okay now👍🏽 will test in the field today.

Updated the App 2 days ago and now Trilobite will not open on my iphone - the Trilobite app icon is there but when touching the icon the app's opening screen flashes up and immediately disappears. A search of the phone and the Apps library comes up negative. Looks like the program behind the...

Thank You cobber 👍👍

X2 what Moneybox said, "ground clearance is adequate for anywhere there's a track". And in an earlier post I offered, "always take the chicken track" and if that is not an available option then switching to a "technical driving" approach, ie taking particular care with wheel placement...

would love to help BUT what is a Knelson ?

An interesting comment - Subaru don't use exotic fluids or non standard tyre sizes, the only difficulty i can think of would be getting the right engine oil filter cos they're tiny. I carry a spare in the spare wheel well. They seem to be sized to suit the oil change interval and in my...

I totally agree with OzzieAu. I am on my second Subaru Forester, a MY2010 bought new and it has just turned over 352,000 kms. I've been all over the Vic High Country in it, in all seasons, and the same with the previous one also bought new. Always take the "chicken track" (I'm old school ie...

Sure, it'll not be their first actual gold discovery, but maybe they'll better recognize the real stuff when they see it for the first time if only because no matter the light or the viewing angle, gold is always golden and unmistakeable - practicing with lead won't give you that. I too...

I made my own practice gold. Most homes will have an old pre-loved 9ct gold neckless or chain bracelet languishing in a box or a drawer somewhere in the house that can be imaginatively re-purposed - but be sure to check with the management, you have been warned 🤬 Now chop it up with wire...
