Those of you who have a few spare hours can while away the time by watching a live stream video of a 10 year old McDonald's hamburger decaying (or not) displayed in a glass cabinet. Oh, it also comes with fries. https://snotrahouse.com/last-mcdonalds/

Buyer beware! I realise this has been in the news some time ago but it might be a good reminder for anybody who thinks they've found a bargain, particularly with oil filters. This article appeared in MR4x4...

The van's all packed and both cars are loaded in readiness. The fire from Shark Creek has been singeing the paintwork of Wooloweyah and Angourie homes and has jumped the towns and is now only about 2km from here.

Interesting article about Gwalia and how deep the mine goes. I'm not sure whether to believe their comment of "For every tonne trucks cart to the surface there might be only seven grams of gold, the equivalent of about one teaspoon. ". I doubt that they would stay in business too long with...

The federal budget will be providing an extra $38.3 million to "facilitate delivery" of the 2021 census to avoid a repeat of the 2016 census fail debacle. I think they're dreaming. Whadya reckon?

I would like to know what protocols/laws there are in using dam water for highbanking in the gold fields of Victoria (not on private land). My intention is to sample some of the mullock heaps and from any dam feeder creeks. Are any areas out of bounds, and where do I look for that information?

I'm currently camped in the GT and was lamenting how dry it is and feeling sorry for myself because I can't use my new powered sluice, then I noticed a number of bees were following me where I was washing down the awning of my van, landing on the wet parts and obviously trying to drink the few...

A Toolangi fire trail 4WDriver had all 4 of his tyres spiked on a Toolangi State Forest fire trail recently. It was a major expensive inconvenience to him but can you imagine the implication of a fire truck trying to escape from a fire...

I love my mountain bike! The only problem was that my ummm err ... family jewels didnt. Ive got front suspensions and seat post suspension but somehow Id (they) would end up with a battering that brought tears to my eyes. This inhibited my rides and I would often get off my bike bow legged as...

Yup, 7.5 billion faces on this planet and we need to create some artificially. Which of these images do you think is of a real person? The left one? Nope youre wrong! The one in the middle? Nope! The right one? Nope youre wrong again! They have all been created by artificial intelligence...

I've never had accountancy lessons although I'm fairly familiar with profit and loss procedures, but I would like to know what an operating margin is. And would you consider 57% as being a healthy "operating margin" for a very large business?

This might sound stoopid, but following on a previous topic about breaking down clay, has anybody tried using centrifugal force to separate gold from other heavies, particularly black sand? After all, gold is the heaviest of the material that we find and theoretically it should be able to be...

I'm upgrading my 8" Gold Rat sluice with a header and a little 3HP petrol water pump via 1.5" hoses. I just received the pump this morning and it came with a plastic strainer for the pick up hose (photo below) and was wondering whether it would be adequate? I was expecting to buy a brass foot...
