[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 639739, member: 4728"] Got my first gold panning in the Yarra river during a drought in the early 60’s. How did I then lose that? It was after I got married and the kids got to my little bottle of gold and sprinkled maybe half the contents of those shiny little bits on the shag pile carpet. A bit later when I noticed the contents of the bottle had significantly decreased and commented to my wife she told me she had seen the kids with the bottle and had put it back. Putting 2 and 2 together I scoured the carpet outside the cabinet and found a few bits but then my wife told me she had since vacuumed there. Back in those days we had incinerators and that is where we burnt a lot of our rubbish including vacuumings so I spent a messy few days panning ashes from our incinerator and found some more gold but alas years of work was still missing.
